The Cathedral - Baptistery

The pearl of Croatian sacral art, the baptistery was designed and created by Juraj Dalmatinac. The entire upper part of the baptistery is covered by his lace-like sculptures, which combine a decorative late Gothic style with the new Renaissance forms, inspired by antiquity. The baptismal font, the center of the entire composition built from reddish breccias from Rab, is supported by three putti angels made by Dalmatinac in natural, relaxed poses, leaning against each other.
