St. Jerome in the Wilderness (Dürer)

"St. Jerome of the Wilderness" was produced around 1496 and is now a double-sided oil painting by Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer on both sides in the National Gallery of London.

This work is based on Dürer of 1957 [1], based on the similarity of animals similar to lions in the second traveling film to Venice, which is currently taking place at the Hamburger Museum. The Lion is undoubtedly pulled out of the depiction of San Marco's Lion City.

Paintings were taken at the Fitzwilliam Museum of Art in Cambridge and later acquired by the London Museum of Art.

At that time, St. Jerome was a common theme of art. Dürer's work may be inspired by a similar depiction by other artists influenced by Giovanni Bellini and Andrea Mantegna.

Jerome was traditionally drawn in his hideout surrounded by all the symbols attributable to him: a lion, a hat and a main dress on the ground (to reject the symbol of honor to the ground), a book (Jerome is a translation of Vulgate))), he used to hit his own stone, praying for the cross

Descriptions of nature are typical of Scandinavian art, there are many details such as birds, white butterflies in the lower part, detailed depiction of the trunk bark and spear lawn. The sky in the background is similar to the watercolor of the Dürer tree pool in the British Museum now.

There is an interesting image on the back side of the picture that looks like a meteorite / meteorite or a comet. Dürer's inspiration may be a depiction of the comet of the Nuremberg Chronicle of 1493. [2] But these woodblock prints are not very stylized, not to show the historic comet, and the image of Dürer is the mysterious sculpture Melencolia I published in 1514 the reality of hot stars I have a positive recognition. .

If Dürer's image represents an actual celestial body, there are three candidates. Dr. Sten Odenwald said, "It was claimed that TT reached 0.0094 AU on February 20, 1491, but the orbit of this comet is very uncertain." Comment tracking. [4] The second one is the Ensheim meteorite. Ursula B Marvin ("Meteorite of Ensheim - 1492 - 1992", (1992)) proposed a proposal for Melencolia I. This object entered Alsace on November 7, 1492. The third is a comet in 1493 in the chronological portion of Sir David Brewster's Encyclopedia of Edinburgh, which states "It can be seen before and after its meridian" [5].

"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.

Using a dried gourd on a scorpion and using it, Dürer is faced with a long-term brewing language controversy with Saint Augustine to celebrate the courage of Jerome He is a Latin word for the rapidly growing plant in Hebrew I like Greek more. 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.

Here, Ribeira represents St. Jerome, the father of the Church, there is compassion in the wilderness. The foreground book refers to the Latin translation of St. Jerome's Bible (called Wargate), the rocks around him symbolizing confession tools of self-confession. Like Carabaggio, Rivera uses Teneburism to achieve dramatic effects and greater expressiveness. The image of St. Jerome himself is unfair. His loose body and long beard made him ascetic in the wilderness. His attitude was dramatic: when his trial angel blew his corner and was over, he was surprised to raise his arm for awe. The remarkable reality of the saints of Ribeira like St. Jerome was a great success in the counter-reform of Naples.
