First entrusted to several Venetian masters, the construction of the Saint-Jacques cathedral in Šibenik was then taken over by George the Dalmatian. He modified the original plan to adopt a transitional style between Gothic and Renaissance. The cathedral was later completed by Nikola Firentinac. The latter took care of the dome and the elements of the facade, fully embracing the Renaissance style. The cathedral was built exclusively with materials from the Croatian islands.
