European School (xx) - The Naked Apostle
- Oil on canvas.- In the most naturalistic vein of the Italian Baroque, paying homage to Caravaggio, this Saint Jerome reveals himself, thanks to a carefully crafted fold of his tunic, completely undressed to the spectators. The painting, which apocryphally copies the work of a disciple of Ribera, is magnificently executed and departs from the severe pictorial philosophy of the 17th century only in its conception of the complete nude. An intriguing composition that unashamedly addresses the sexuality of the saints.- Dimensions of the image without frame: 121 x 85 cm / 132 x 96 cm with magnificent frame.- Galerie Montbaron encloses with all its lots a technical sheet drawn up by a qualified art historian.
