Prilog poznavanju liturgijskih predmeta od plemenitih metala župne crkve Svetog Jurja u Lovranu
A Contribution to the Liturgical Items made of Precious Metals in the Parish Church of St. George in Lovran

Summary/Abstract: The medieval parish church of St. George in Lovran was being continuously enlarged and renewed in the period between 17th and 19th centuries. These reconstructions resulted in the ordering of several new altars adorned with paintings but also furnished with liturgical silverware.Among approximately ten objects that have been preserved in the parish church, the hitherto unpublished monstrance and chalice stand out by their quality. The monstrance is a typical late Gothic product: it has a rectangular glass vessel surmounted with a rich architectural decoration.It was made in the 16th century but it was rather heavily renovated in the 19th century. The unpublished neoclassical chalice dating in the 19th century has a base adorned with three figures of the personalities from the Old Testament.This characteristic connects it with the similar objects from Dubrovnik and Drvenik.
