  35. The Golden Gate at Split. From Robert Adam's Ruins of the Palace of Diocletian at Spalato , 1784. The colonnetes above the entrance have gone, and the ground-level is higher, but otherwise the gateway remains as Robert Adam saw it, an impressive monument of the last phase of Imperial Roman architecture (c. A.D. 300).
  36. The Mausoleum of Diocletian , now the Catedral, Split. From Robert Adam's Ruins of the Palace of Diocletian at Spalato , 1784.
  37. View looking across the Peristyle, Split.
  38. S. Barbar, Trogir (ninth-tenth century).
  39. S. Luke, Kotor (1195; restored 1368); This church illustrates in a rudimentary way the first Serbian (Ras"ka) school of arhitecture, in which we have a simple single-cell building crowned by a cupola.
  40. Morac"a (1252) Viev from the west. The perfected Ras"ka style, having the cupola raised above the roof on a square platform.
  41. Morac"a: Virgin and Child. A characteristic Byzantine composition, in which the Child is placed centrally, and appears almost independent of the Mother, who sits like an enthroned empress. This fresco is over life-size, and belongs to the early monumental school of painting, in which dignity and grandeur are the dominant features.
