Abstract

High altar was built in the second half of the 19th century or in the early 20th century in the eclectic style that combines the elements of Neo-Baroque and Neo-Renaissance. The neo-renaissance elements include structure imitating a triumphal arch with fully flat entablature above side pivots, as well as a shape of altar finial imitating a renaissance tondo located in a niche, the arch of which is decorated with suspended rosettes. The altar might have been made in the workshop of a Tyrolean artist.
