Painting Description
"Hugues de Provence at his Desk" is a fresco by the Italian painter Tommaso da Modena, also known as Tommaso Barisino or Rabisino, created in 1342 as part of a larger series depicting forty illustrious members of the Dominican Order. This artwork is located in the Chapterhouse of the Convent of San Nicolò in Treviso, Italy. The cycle is notable for being one of the earliest known examples of portraits showing individuals in their study, reflecting the intellectual pursuits of the Dominicans during the 14th century.
The fresco portrays Hugues de Provence, a learned member of the Dominican Order, engrossed in his scholarly work at a desk. The attention to detail in the depiction of books, reading tools, and the thoughtful expression of Hugues highlights the importance of study and contemplation within the Dominican tradition. Tommaso da Modena's work is characterized by its realism and the use of perspective, which was innovative for the time and prefigures the developments of the early Renaissance.
The Cycle of Forty Illustrious Members of the Dominican Order, including "Hugues de Provence at his Desk," is significant for its artistic merit and for providing insight into the intellectual climate of the Middle Ages.
