Sažetak
The Baroque style in the religious art in Croatia was initiated by the Jesuits who built, for their Academy, the church of St. Catherine in Zagreb in 1620-1630. Zagreb bishopric hired Hans Alberthal from Vorarleberg to work on the restoration of the Cathedral. He has been recognized as the architect of the Jesuit church, too, as it reveals the northern type of the Jesuit church such as appears to the north of the Alps and in the Danube region. Until the Turkish defeat at Vienna in 1683, the church decor displays an infl uence of the eclectic Mannerism. From then on, the Baroque style follows the developments in the Central European art circle both in architecture and church furnishing. This is also revealed by the numerous names of artists who came to Croatia, some of which stayed permanently, and the sculpture, painting, and minor arts turning the church space into a “Gesamtkunstwerk,“ and a treasury of valuable objects.
