The Cathedral of St James in Šibenik.

The Cathedral exemplifies significant artistic exchanges between Northern Italy, Dalmatia, and Tuscany during the 15th and 16th centuries. Built entirely from stone, the cathedral showcases unique construction techniques, especially in the vaulting and dome. The work of three architects helped blend Gothic and Renaissance elements, as seen in its distinctive decorative frieze featuring 71 sculpted faces of men, women, and children. This remarkable architectural fusion highlights the rich cultural interaction of the time.
