During the thirty-year episcopate of Giacomo Turloni (1452–1483), a period that coincided with the consolidation of the Serenissima’s power in Dalmatia, some of the most significant works of the Early Dalmatian Renaissance were commissioned for the Trogir Cathedral, including the baptistery and the Chapel of St. John. Turloni, long recognized as a central figure in the Renovatio Urbis of Trogir, has had his biography primarily informed by seventeenth- and eighteenth-century authors such as Ivan Lucić and Daniele Farlati. This article revises the prevailing account of his origins, demonstrating his Venetian rather than Anconetan background as maintained by these earlier sources. It also publishes Turloni’s will, which reveals his close associations with Coriolano Cippico and his son Alvise, and records his final wish to be interred in a modest tomb within the cathedral choir.

Abstract
During the thirty-year episcopate of Giacomo Turloni (1452–1483), a period that coincided with the consolidation of the Serenissima’s power in Dalmatia, some of the most significant works of the Early Dalmatian Renaissance were commissioned for the Trogir Cathedral, including the baptistery and the Chapel of St. John. Turloni, long recognized as a central figure in the Renovatio Urbis of Trogir, has had his biography primarily informed by seventeenth- and eighteenth-century authors such as Ivan Lucić and Daniele Farlati. This article revises the prevailing account of his origins, demonstrating his Venetian rather than Anconetan background as maintained by these earlier sources. It also publishes Turloni’s will, which reveals his close associations with Coriolano Cippico and his son Alvise, and records his final wish to be interred in a modest tomb within the cathedral choir.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
