Preoţi parohi şi artă în oraşul Bistriţa la sfîrşitul evului mediu

  • Subiect: This study aims to investigate some evidence of ecclesiastical art patronage in the town of Bistriţa in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. Parish priests were important donors and supporters of their churches, as attested by several Transylvanian sources. In the urban context, the cases of Georgius Schleynig and Johannes Clyn (Cluj) or Johannes de Olczna (Sibiu) are well-known. However, there is very sparse information about similar initiatives in the main town of the Nösnerland: Bistriţa. This study investigates two significant objects of the local medieval heritage: the parish house in the town’s Central Market and an exquisite liturgical item, the pax preserved in the National Museum at Budapest. Both objects bear evidence of patronage: inscriptions and coats of arms. This investigation proves that they most probably relate to parish priests of St Nicholas’ church active in that period.
