About this audio guide

This guide to Trogir Old Town follows a small marble relief a member of the Statilic family brought home sometime in the fifteen hundreds, tracing it back to Lysippus, the sculptor who worked for Alexander the Great, and to Kairos, the god of the fleeting, opportune moment. You'll hear how the carving sat forgotten in the family house for nearly four centuries before a local art historian finally looked closely at what was stored there. Trogir's fortified streets and Romanesque churches are worth wandering while you listen.
