This intimate cabinet piece, after Jusepe de Ribera's famous model "Saint Jerome Hearing the Trumpet of the Last Judgment" from 1626 (original in Museo di Capodimonte, Naples).
The composition depicts Saint Jerome in a moment of mystical ecstasy: the kneeling penitent hermit with a tormented yet muscular body, partially draped in white cloth, holds a skull (memento mori symbol) while listening to a divine vision. In the shadowy background, barely visible, an angel appears, hinting at the trumpet of Judgment – an iconic motif from Ribera's tenebrist style.
A rare and atmospheric devotional work combining the spiritual depth of Counter-Reformation Baroque with Rococo refinement – ideal for collectors of Old Master paintings or as a focal point in a classic interior.
Provenance:
Formerly in a European private collection, acquired on the Vienna antiques market (Austria). The object has been in Europe for several decades.
