Albrecht Durer "Saint Jerome" modern print/reproduction on handmade paper, circa 2010.
Condition as shown in the photographs.
Dimensions 35x25 cm.
Of Durer's three master engravings (Meisterstiche) of 1513 and 1514, this is the one whose interpretation seems the most straightforward. Saint Jerome, the translator of the Bible into Latin (the Vulgate) and therefore the exemplar of the Christian scholar, is seated in a study typical of Durer's own time. He works quietly at a sloping writing table, while his lion and his dog sleep just as quietly in the foreground. The light of his halo and the sunlight streaming through the windows are in perfect balance, and the recurring horizontals of the composition contribute to the pervading sense of rest and harmony.
