Sažetak
The stone sculpture of the Virgin Annunciation from the Archaeological Museum of Istria in Pula which was recently published as one of the Gothic sculptures of Istria and dated to the early 16th century (V. Ekl), attributed previously to a master from the school of Giovanni Bon (A. Gnirs) in the late Gothic period, is separated by the author from the complex of Gothic sculpture and defined as early Renaissance. He dates it to the second half of the 15th century. In his opinion, this sculpture is one of the most valuable early Renaissance sculptures on the eastern Adriatic coast, and he notes a series of similarities in from which would connect it to the Dalmatian sculptural circle — Juraj Dalmatinac and Nikola Firentinac. But taking the existing differences into account — the classical sense of balance he points to the possibility that this is the work of a master from their circle, who, such as Ivan Pribislavić, for example, could have absorbed and creatively fused the qualities of both masters into a synthesis. The author also opens the issue of the sculpture's original location. It was later found in the southern cemetary chapel of S. M. Formosa in Pula, but as a part of an Annunciation composition it could have been in the central apse of a church consecrated to the Holy Virgin or in one of the niches of the circular chapels (pastophories) flanking the apse.
