Spanish or Novo-Hispanic school, 17th century.
"Saint Jerome".
Oil on canvas (original).
Frame of the 19th century.
It presents some faults.
Measurements: 124,5 x 100 cm; 132,5 x 111 cm (frame).
During the Baroque period, the period in which this painting is dated, the representation of Saint Jerome was a recurrent theme. The iconographic pattern, however, had already been established since the Renaissance period. All the characteristic elements are present here: the saint, wrapped in his red cloak, kneels before a crucifix while the heavenly trumpet approaches him from behind. The lion prostrate at his feet alludes to the anecdote in the "Golden Legend": it is narrated that one day, when he was explaining the Bible to the monks in his convent, he saw a lion limping towards him. He removed the thorn from its paw, and from then on he kept it in his service, instructing it to look after his donkey while it grazed. Some merchants stole the donkey, and the lion recovered it, returning it to the saint without hurting the animal. The scene is notable for the use of contrasting light, the naturalism of the saint's face and the baroque theatricality of the breaking of glory. One of the four great Doctors of the Latin Church, Saint Jerome was born near Aquileia (Italy) in 347. Trained in Rome, he was an accomplished rhetorician and polyglot. Baptised at the age of nineteen, between 375 and 378 he withdrew to the Syrian desert to lead an anchorite's life. He returned to Rome in 382 and became a collaborator of Pope Damasus. One of the most frequent representations of this saint is his penance in the desert.
