description the cathedral of st james in šibenik (1431-1535), on the dalmatian coast, bears witness to the considerable exchanges in the field of monumental arts between northern italy, dalmatia and tuscany in the 15th and 16th centuries. the three architects who succeeded one another in the construction of the cathedral - francesco di giacomo, georgius mathei dalmaticus and niccolò di giovanni fiorentino - developed a structure built entirely from stone and using unique construction techniques for the vaulting and the dome of the cathedral. the form and the decorative elements of the cathedral, such as a remarkable frieze decorated with 71 sculptured faces of men, women, and children, also illustrate the successful fusion of gothic and renaissance art.
justification criterion (i): the structural characteristics of the cathedral of st james in šibenik make it a unique and outstanding building in which gothic and renaissance forms have been successfully blended. criterion ii the cathedral of st james is the fruitful outcome of considerable interchanges of influences between the three culturally different regions of northern italy, dalmatia, and tuscany in the 15th and 16th centuries. these interchanges created the conditions for unique and outstanding solutions to the technical and structural problems of constructing the cathedral vaulting and dome. criterion iv the cathedral of st james in šibenik is a unique testimony to the transition from the gothic to the renaissance period in church architecture.
