    Dubrovnik Annals 20 (2016): pp. 7-51 7 Original paper UDC 739.1.046(497.5Dubrovnik) DOI: http://doi.org/10.21857/mnlqgcjejy DECONSTRUCTING THE MYTH OF BYZANTINE CROWN: THE HEAD RELIQUARY OF SAINT BLAISE IN DUBROVNIK ANA MUNK ABSTRACT: The head reliquary of Saint Blaise in Dubrovnik, made in 1694 by the Venetian goldsmith Francesco Ferro, has long been thought to replicate an earlier version that was mentioned in the 1335 inventory of Dubrovnik cathedral. The article examines the history of the head relic and the assumption that it may have replicated or connoted a shape of the Byzantine imperial crown, a kamelaukion. From the available evidence such reading has been rejected. Instead, it is proposed that it resembled the dome-shaped reliquary such as that of Saint James in Zadar dated to the end of the eleventh or beginning of the twelfth century. Furthermore, it is proposed that group I enamels that adorn the reliquary were not made in Constantinople, but in Dubrovnik between 1164 and 1180, given that they show a number of non-Byzantine stylistic and iconographical features and inscriptions in Beneventan script incompatible with enamel production in Constantinople. Keywords: head reliquary, relic, Saint Blaise cult, Dubrovnik, enamel, kamelaukion, Byzantine reliquaries Introduction The head reliquary of Saint Blaise is an artwork that testifies to Dubrovnik’s earliest history and to the continuity of its religious and artistic life (Fig. 1). The people of Dubrovnik believe that the head relic of Saint Blaise has not left Ana Munk, Assistant Professor at the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Philosophy, Department of Art History.

    The Abbey of St. Chrysogonus in Zadar · between Early Christian sculpture and the Romanesque architecture Ivan JosipoviÆ, Ivana Tomas UDC: 726.71(497.581.1)"09" I. Josipović Review History of Art Department, University of Zadar Manuscript received: 28. 02. 2017. Obala kralja Petra Krešimira IV. 2, 23 000 Zadar, Croatia Revised manuscript accepted: 16. 03. 2017. I. Tomas DOI: 10.1484/J.HAM.5.113721 Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Zagreb Ivana Lučića 3, 10 000 Zagreb, Croatia The monastery of St. Chrysogonus in Zadar was one of the most notable Benedictine abbeys on the eastern Adriatic coast. The monastery was first mentioned in the second half of the tenth century, but there is very little knowledge about the earliest (Benedictine) building. The present- day church of St. Chrysogonus, consecrated in 1175, is a monumental three-nave basilica and one of the most significant Romanesque religious monuments in the eastern Adriatic. One of the aims of the paper is to discuss the problem of the first church and monastery of St. Chrysogonus - therefore special attention will be given to the interpretation of Early Christian and Early Medieval fragments of liturgical furnishings and architectural decoration found in the well-preserved Romanesque monument. Attention will also be focused on the Romanesque church, especially on the interpretation of its architecture and surviving remains of architectural sculpture, and architectural influences that has always been in the centre of scientific interest. The purpose of this paper is to improve the existing knowledge of the Benedictine monastery in Zadar, which will contribute to a better understanding of Benedictine (medieval) monuments of the eastern Adriatic coast and the adjacent area.
