EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Stephan Lochner's masterpiece, "St. Jerome in His Study" painted around 1440. The oil on panel artwork measures 39.4x30.5 cm and is housed at the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh, USA. In this exquisite painting, we see St. Jerome immersed in his study, surrounded by an aura of tranquility and wisdom. The figure of the saint sits at a desk adorned with silver accents while engrossed in reading biblical texts, symbolizing his scholarly pursuits and dedication to religious knowledge. Lochner skillfully captures the essence of St. Jerome's character through intricate details such as the draping garments that elegantly flow around him and the halo above his head denoting his sanctity. Adding an intriguing element to the composition is a majestic lion resting peacefully beside St. Jerome, representing both his legendary companionship with animals and his role as a translator of biblical texts from Hebrew into Latin. The Gothic architecture depicted in the background further enhances the sense of timelessness within this scene, while tall columns frame St. Jerome's contemplative space. This German masterpiece not only showcases Lochner's exceptional talent but also serves as a testament to St. Jerome's enduring legacy as one of Christianity's most revered figures.
