Sažetak
After the long-lasting Ottoman occupation, concluded by the Treaty of Karlowitz, signed in January 1699 in Sremski Karlovci, Slavonia underwent the process of transforming its urban, artistic and cultural landscape. Conditioned primarily by political circumstances, the dominance of Habsburg crown, a powerful cultural influence of Central European artistic circle emerged in all aspects of civil, military and religious life. While the visual identity of Northwestern Croatia during 17th even the 18th century largely depended on the relations with Styria and Tyrol, this region owes much of its Baroque identity to Vienna and subsequently to Buda. It was under the auspices of the religious orders, the Franciscans, Capuchins and Jesuits, nobility and sometimes under the patronage of the ruling house of Habsburg that the late Baroque artistic and cultural heritage of Slavonia and its most Eastern part Syrmia emerged. In the late 17th century and during the 18th century there were no academically trained local artists, thus the inventory for the newly erected or adapted churches has been purchased in Vienna or Buda or have been, mostly paintings and liturgical vestments and vessels, sometimes received as gifts from the house of Habsburg. Despite the fact that the "Baroque centuries" were marked by a fairly free flow of artists through the interconnected regions of the Habsburg Monarchy, only few artist, architects or sculptors were documented to have migrated to Slavonia to settle.
