The paper brings new insights into the reception and use of Andrea Pozzo ’ s figures, published in his treatise Perspectiva pictorum et architectorum (1693, 1700), in 18th-century painted altarpieces in Croatia. Certain figures can be established as models for the design of painted altarpieces in the oeuvres of Ivan Krstitelj Ranger, Anton Jožef Lerchinger, and Antun Archer. Each of these painters used Pozzo’s models and principles in an idiosyncratic way, reflecting thereby different approaches and stylistic developments in 18th-century wall painting in Croatia
