EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of St Marks church, located in Zagreb, Croatia's old town known as "Upper Town". Standing proudly on St Marks Square, this 13th-century church is a true emblem of Zagreb's rich history and architectural grandeur. The vibrant tiled roof, added in 1880, immediately catches the eye with its colorful display. On the left side, the medieval coat of arms of Croatia, Dalmatia, and Slavonia can be seen while the emblem of Zagreb adorns the right side. This intricate detail showcases a deep connection to Croatian heritage. As you approach closer to this magnificent structure through its Gothic portal sculpted in the 14th century, you are greeted by an array of fifteen figures delicately placed within shallow niches. Each figure tells a story and adds to the overall charm and mystique that surrounds this historic place. Inside St Marks church lies another treasure - sculptures created by renowned artist Ivan Mestrovic. These sculptures add depth and artistic brilliance to an already awe-inspiring interior. While visiting this remarkable site, it is important to note that access is limited; only during opening hours can one enter into the anteroom while Mass times allow entry into the main church itself. Vesna Armstrong's skillful capture allows us to appreciate every intricate detail and feel transported back in time as we admire one of Zagreb's most iconic landmarks - St Marks church.
