%0 Journal Article %T ST. ANASTASIUS CHAPEL IN ST. DOMNIUS CATHEDRAL IN SPLIT %A Bu£¿an£¿i£¿ %A Radoslav %J - %D 2019 %X Sa£¿etak The first mention of the new chapel of St. Anastasius occurs in an agreement concluded in the town¡¯s lodge near the porto marina next to the Venetian castle on the coast, June 30, 1448 in Split. The document reads that an agreeement for the construction of the chapel of St. Anastasius was made there between the primicerius Bertan Dominikov, cannons Cvitan Drago£¿ev and noblemen Juraj Petrov, Andrija Markov, Arnin Lovrin and Petar Markov Spli£¿anin (Pe£¿eni£¿), with the permission and consent of the Archbishop Jakov Baduario and town prince Aleksandar Marcello on the one side, and the stonemason Juraj Matejev from £¿ibenik on the other. The witnesses of the meeting were equally respectable: former mayor Marko Memo, castellan of the nearby castle Bartolomej Tagliapietra, Pavao Vu£¿inin and the chamberlain Andrija Miladinov. The agreement examinator was Miha Madije. Juraj received an order to create a ciborium with the corresponding altar dedicated to St. Anastasius from the procurator of the cathedral. The chapel was to be erected on the site of the existing chapel of St. Anastasius, which, according to the agreement, was supposed to be brought down first. The type of stone the master could use was noted in the agreement on the construction of the chapel. Three stone blocks around the church were at the master¡¯s disposal, and of course, he was allowed to use the material left after tearing down of the chapel. The contractors recommended that the stone used for the mensa be of good quality and abundant, i.e. made of a solid single piece to make the service on it comfortable. There was a mention of opening two windows in the northern wall of the mausoleum, and installation of the iron bars on them. In the same document it was agreed and repeated several times, that the new chapel would be modelled like the chapel right to the altar made by Bonino da Milano in 1427. The arch of the chapel vault was to be made of tufa stone according to the agreement, and the remaining stone, iron and lead was to be provided for by the master himself at his own expense. The number and arrangement of the saints which decorated the altar was also set, all modelled on the altar of Bonino da Milano. The salary of 306 golden ducats was agreed for a task that was to be completed within a period of a little over two years, namely until January 1450. Juraj was supposed to be paid 300 ducats of the church goods, two ducats by the Archbishop, and a ducat by Bretan¡¯s, Cvitan¡¯s, Juraj¡¯s and Markov¡¯s proxies each.
