Painting Description
"La Virgen del Carmen imponiendo el escapulario a San Simón Stock" (The Virgin of Carmen Bestowing the Scapular on Saint Simon Stock) is an 18th-century oil painting by Spanish artist José Camarón y Boronat. This work of art depicts the legendary apparition of the Virgin Mary to Saint Simon Stock, an English Carmelite friar of the 13th century. According to Carmelite tradition, on July 16, 1251, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to Saint Simon Stock, who was then the Prior General of the Carmelite Order, and presented him with a brown scapular, a garment symbolizing her protection. This event is considered the origin of the Brown Scapular devotion, a widespread practice in the Catholic Church.
José Camarón y Boronat (1731–1803), born in Segorbe, was a prominent painter and engraver of the Spanish Enlightenment. His artistic career flourished as he became a court painter and a director at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Carlos in Valencia. Camarón y Boronat's style was influenced by the Rococo and Neoclassical movements, and he was known for his religious compositions, portraits, and mythological scenes.
In "La Virgen del Carmen imponiendo el escapulario a San Simón Stock," Camarón y Boronat captures the mystical encounter with a dramatic interplay of light and shadow, emphasizing the divine nature of the Virgin Mary and the humble posture of Saint Simon Stock. The painting is rich in religious symbolism and reflects the Baroque influence on the artist, despite his later association with Neoclassicism.
The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and religious implications. It serves as an important visual representation of the Carmelite Order's history and the veneration of the Virgin of Carmen. The artwork is an example of the Counter-Reformation's emphasis on visual arts as a means of religious instruction and reinforcement of Catholic doctrine.
As of the knowledge cutoff date, the current location or ownership of "La Virgen del Carmen imponiendo el escapulario a San Simón Stock" is not specified, and further research may be required to provide this information.
