"Vision of St Bernard" is a notable painting created in 1611 by the Spanish Baroque artist Juan de las Roelas. This artwork is a significant example of the early Baroque period in Spain, showcasing Roelas' mastery in combining dramatic religious themes with a vivid and dynamic style. Juan de las Roelas, also known as Juan de Uceda, was a prominent painter in Seville, and his works are often characterized by their intense emotional expression and vibrant use of color.

The painting depicts the mystical vision of St. Bernard of Clairvaux, a prominent medieval French abbot and a major leader in the reform of the Cistercian order. In the vision, St. Bernard is shown experiencing a divine apparition, typically involving the Virgin Mary or Christ, which was a common theme in religious art of the period. Roelas captures this moment with a sense of immediacy and spiritual intensity, drawing the viewer into the saint's profound religious experience.

Roelas' use of light and shadow in "Vision of St Bernard" is particularly noteworthy. The dramatic chiaroscuro effect enhances the supernatural aspect of the vision, creating a stark contrast between the earthly realm and the divine. The composition is carefully balanced, with St. Bernard often placed in a humble, kneeling position, gazing upwards towards the heavenly figure. This arrangement not only emphasizes the saint's piety and devotion but also guides the viewer's eye towards the focal point of the vision.

The painting reflects the Counter-Reformation's emphasis on personal piety and the direct, emotional engagement with the divine. Roelas' ability to convey complex theological themes through his art made him a key figure in the development of Spanish Baroque painting. "Vision of St Bernard" remains an important work for its artistic merit and its representation of the spiritual fervor of the time.
