Abstract

The thesis contains a description and analysis of the art collection of the parish in Kloštar Ivanić. Short description of little towns history is given for better understanding of the material. Kloštar Ivanić was very important church property centuries ago. Two big churches were built there and from 13th century until today numerous church orders were (and still are) staying there (except during the Ottoman wars in this area). The greatest influence have left the Franciscans, who came at the beginning of the 16th century and were invited by bishop Luka Baratin. Church autority and Franciscan activity affected the lives of population the most, as well as the formation of the collection and its content. The collection contains the works of sacral paintings and sculpture, liturgical clothes and dishes, votive presents and few other items. Authors of some works remain unknown, but for most of them we know who they are - sculptors and altar makers Michael Komersteiner and Ivan Weinacht and painters Izaija Gasser and Ivan Beyer. Most of them are from 18th century, but some are from 17th. Today these are kept int he paris church of the Assumption of Blessed Virgin Mary, but most of them are from the other church in this small town, the franciscan church, in which Franciscans stayed until the World War II.
