Sažetak

The Chapel of the Holy Cross on the island of Badija near Korčula is a part of the Franciscan Monastery. It is a well known fact that it was designed by the Venetian architect Giorgio Massari (1687-1766). The overall opinion used to be that the chapel derived from the architect’s late phase due to an inscription at the chapel from the year 1762. However, archive data brought to light in 1983 (Joško Belamarić) showed that the project was Massari’s early work, dating back to the beginning of 1730s. The author of the article claims that the chapel is of great signifi cance for Massari’s work as it belongs to a phase in which he was still exploring different ways of expressing himself as an architect. With the project for the chapel, Massari moved away from the Classicism of late Baroque which was typical of the architecture of his time as well as of his later work. The author also included two sketches which are according to him Massari’s design for the altars; one for the Chapel of the Holy Cross and the other for the nave of the Franciscan Church that the chapel was adjoined to. The third, newly discovered sketch with the design for the altar, was probably drawn for the same Franciscan Church.
