Painting Description
"Saint Jerome Hearing the Trumpet of the Last Judgment" is a significant oil painting by the Spanish Tenebrist painter Jusepe de Ribera, also known as José de Ribera or Lo Spagnoletto. Created in 1621, this artwork is a striking example of Ribera's dramatic and intense style, which was influenced by Caravaggio's use of chiaroscuro and the naturalism of the early Baroque period. The painting depicts Saint Jerome, a Father of the Latin Church, in a moment of spiritual rapture as he responds to the divine call of the Last Judgment's trumpet.
In the painting, Ribera captures Saint Jerome's asceticism and penitence through his gaunt figure and the stark, rocky landscape that surrounds him. The saint is traditionally shown with a lion, referencing the legend of Jerome removing a thorn from a lion's paw, and this motif is often present in depictions of the saint. Ribera's interpretation, however, focuses on the intensity of Jerome's experience, as the saint clasps a crucifix and looks heavenward, his face a mix of fear and awe.
Ribera's work is noted for its powerful depiction of human emotion and physicality, and "Saint Jerome Hearing the Trumpet of the Last Judgment" is no exception. The painting's composition, with its strong contrasts of light and shadow, serves to heighten the emotional impact and underscore the theme of divine judgment and redemption.
This painting is part of a series of works by Ribera on the subject of Saint Jerome, which were produced during his time in Naples, a period when the artist was deeply engaged with religious themes. The artwork is a testament to Ribera's mastery of the human form, his skillful use of light, and his ability to convey complex spiritual narratives through visual art. It remains an important piece in the oeuvre of Jusepe de Ribera and a valuable example of 17th-century Spanish Baroque painting.
