Sažetak
ln the Spada Gallery in Rome there is a portrait of Luka Stella, Archbishop of Zadar, by the Venetian painter Domenico Tintoretto (1560-1635), famous for his portraits which he successfully painted throughout his career, inspired by the portrait work of his father Jacopa. Luka Stella was born in Venice to one of the city's prominent families. After studies in Padua and several high posts in the Church, in 1615 Pope Paul V appointed him as the Archbishop of Zadar, the position he held to 1624. He was in Zadar at the time of the Roman Catholic Church reforms prompted by the Council of Trent the firm guidelines of which Archbishop Stella tried to implement in his diocese. He renewed the neglected sanctuaries of patron saints of Zadar, St. Donatus, St. Anastasia and St. Zoilo, and had the authenticity of their relics verified. His portrait provides valuable cultural and historial evidence as it is set against the view of Zadar. Archbiship Stella was also a prominent donor: he had a beautiful reliquiary in the shape of bust made for St. Anastasia's relic, still worshipped in Zadar and preserved in the memory of the Archbishop of Zadar.
