In his study, St. Jerome was an oil painting by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer completed in March 1521. This is in the National Gallery of Lisbon in Portugal.
This work went while Durer stayed in the Netherlands from 1520 to 1521 [1]. Preparation of Vienna's Albertina records the age of men (93)
The artist donated the picture to Rodrigo Fernández de Armada, the head of the trade delegation of the Netherlands and Portugal. It remained in the latter family's collection until 1880 when it was donated to the present museum
In the depiction of St. Jerome of Dürer, this is a more portrait-like photograph and leaves a small room for research and details (for example, in his 1514 etch, the saint is a small person in the background) . )
This theme is very attention to detail, including [1] white and yellow beard wrinkles. Unlike etching, the proposal that the finger is on the skull is more visually relevant.
The details of the foreground are the ink bottle on the right, the bookshelf on the left, and the cross on the upper left corner.
"St Jerome in is Study" is one of three printmakers published in Dürer's "Master Prints" and represents the top of his achievement in the media. It is known for its meditative atmosphere, exciting lighting, and internal details. Realistic things around saints including writing instruments and spiritual things give the saint a persuasive presence. From a strict mathematical point of view, Dürer creates prints that will help you understand intellectual and spiritual discipline and demonstrate your learning.
In his study (German: Der heilige Hieronymus imGehäus), in 1514 St. Jerome was carved by German artist Albrecht Dürer. St Jerome sat on the back of his desk and concentrated on his work. The corner of the table is a typical cross of the Renaissance. Jerome's imaginary line through the cross reaches the skull of the window frame, as if comparing death and resurrection. The foreground Lion is part of the traditional image of St. Jerome near the sleeping dog and is an animal symbolizing loyalty. These two creatures are part of Jerome's story of 'Golden Legend' (around the AD 1260) including saints' illusional hadeeth.
Using a dried gourd on a scorpion and using it, Dürer is faced with a long-lasting brewing language controversy with Saint Augustine to commemorate the courage of Jerome He is against the rapidly growing plant in Hebrew I prefer Greek to Latin. It was only this time that Yoshi had קיקיון (qiyqayown). The text of the Old Testament is suddenly closed (Jonah 4) based on the symbolic metaphor of the rapidly growing grapes in Persian language stories (Jonah 4), some of the Aeop's fables such as gourd and palm trees It spread widely in the collection. Jerome chose to use Hedera (meaning Greek, ivy) instead of the more common Latin zucchini. There, the relevant British plant name Cucumber comes from, probably to avoid confusion and to complete the type of Christ. Analogy "I am a vine that you are a branch" Indeed, the Dürer era occupied the viewpoint of Augustine.
