U radu su predstavljene kamene skulpture varaždinskog kipara Ivana Jakoba Altenbacha. Njegovo jedino dokumentirao djelo dovodi nas do kamenih skulptura koje se usporedbom
načinja klesanja draperije, specifične fizionomije lica i ikonografskih tema lako pripisuju kiparu. Altenbachova ostvarena u drvu, ali i u kamenu smatraju se pretečom baroka. Povijesničari umijetnosti, na prvom mjestu Doris Baričević, kroz povijest opusu ovoga kipara često
atribuiranjem dodaju kamene skulpture. Tako obogaćuju opus i sve češće spominju kiparevo ime, bilo to uz njegove drvene ili kamene skulpture.This paper presents stone sculptures of an sculptor from Varazdin, Ivan Jakob Altenbach. His
only documented work leads us to stone sculptures whose specific drape form, face visage and
iconographic topics can easily be recognized as this sculptor’s technique. Altenbach’s
achievements in wood, but also in stone, are considered to be forerunner of baroque. Art
historians, in the first place Doris Baričević, usually add stone sculptures when they talk about
entire art work of this sculptor. In that way they enrich his oeuvre and they mention his name
more often
