As a group, these books contain six illustrations and a set of historiated Latin initials that connects them with contemporary Venetian publications and book design. By examining books printed in Venice during the first decades of the 16th century, the author has identified models for most of the illustrations and the initials printed by Ko£żi£żi£ż. The illustrations used in books printed in Rijeka are analysed regarding their stylistic and iconographical features, and interpreted as carefully chosen elements of a visual program that reflects the idea of Ko£żi£żi£żĦŻs publishing undertaking %K book illustration %K woodcuts %K Glagolitic printed books %K Glagolitic printing office in Rijeka %K Rijeka Missal (Misal hruacki) %K Bishop £żimun Ko£żi£żi£ż Benja %K 16th century %U https://hrcak.srce.hr/index.php?show=clanak&id_clanak_jezik=340198
