Biography
Biography
He had brothers Nikola /Nicholas/, Anđeo /Angel/ and Petar /Peter/, who all succeeded his father's business and expanded it. At the beginning of the fourteenth century he settled in Dubrovnik and started his own business. In documents he is mentioned to have possessed a stonemasonry workshop in Dubrovnik in 1314. There he had an apprentice named Osroje Bogdanović from the Konavle region. His brother Nikola joined him in December 1316 and both of them obliged to work for the Dubrovnik Dominican Monastery, one of the most important architectural structures in the City of Dubrovnik, established in 1225 and completed in the fourteenth century. The brothers Juraj and Nikola built it in a simple Gothic architectural style. While Juraj was active in Dubrovnik, his brothers Anđeo and Petar were later working as architects and builders in Dubrovnik and Kotor as well.
