Description from the seller
No reserve
In this evocative painting of the end of
From the 700s Italian school, the solemn figure of Saint Jerome Penitent is portrayed at a moment of deep meditation. Abandoned in the silence of a twilight, rocky landscape, the Saint is depicted with the long white beard and the habit in a work imbued with mystical chiaroscuro, which reveals the contours of spirituality. The earthy and vibrant palette, typical of the late eighteenth century, endows the subject with a timeless dignity. An intimate masterpiece, where the sacred meets the sublime, ready to infuse
to your environment, an atmosphere of quiet and deep reflection. The canvas is wrapped in a splendid, rich patina of time, a veil of centuries that enhances its depth. Its original condition (it has not been cleaned) and the rich, deep patina tell centuries of life, making it an object of great interest to collectors, and art lovers who appreciate the integrity and charm of the antique.
