Sažetak
The chapel of St. Anthony the Abbot at Zadobarje is located some twenty kilometers from the center of Karlovac. It has not been registered in the historical lists of parishes of the 14th and early 16th century. The additions and rebuildings of the 17th – 19th century have been reported by Đurđica Cvitanović. Thanks to the investigations carried out within the preservation campaign of 2005, frescoes were discovered in the apse and the elongated choir. Checking with the architectural drawings at the Art History Institute in Zagreb, it has been
established that the slouthern and main facades contained loopholes. After the process of cleaning a rich cycle of frescoes was established in the apse, its iconography reminiscent of Istria. Additionally, the Annunciation could be related to the same scene at St. Nikola in Tabor near Grosuplje in Slovenia. The treatment of detail point to the Maršič group of Slovene frescoes, revealing elements ascribed by Slovene scholars to a Master Toma from Senj and his workshop (early 16th ct.). The presence of loopholes indicates that the church was used as refuge before during Turkish raids before the building of Karlovac. Judging from the representation on the facade wall one may conclude that the donor was Stjepan III Frankopan. The frescoes belong to the Renaissance period, although their iconography and style a still medieval.
