DiasshowSaint Jerome

Valentin De Boulogne (1591 – 1632)
Udforsk Valentin de Boulogne's tenebristiske malerier! Fransk kunstner kendt for dramatiske lys- og mørkekontraster, Caravaggio-indflydelse og scener med spåkonst.
The famed scholar and translator of the Bible, Saint Jerome (ca. 347–420), is shown interrupted, turning his head, possibly at the sound of a trumpet blast from heaven (a popular subject). Valentin thus suggests sound by the attitude of the figure. The companion painting of Saint John the Baptist (on view here) shows him preaching. The concept of "painted sound" would not be surprising from the painter of musical concerts! Both pictures were purchased by Angelo Giori (1586–1662), a member of the papal circle of Urban VIII and a man of great sophistication. The loan has been made for this exhibition despite the fact that the Church of Santa Maria in Via was severely damaged by the August 24, 2016, earthquake.
