EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a mesmerizing artwork titled "St Jerome seated ground reading inscribed scroll" by Jusepe de Ribera, also known as Lo Spagnoletto. The image depicts St Jerome, a prominent figure in Christian history, seated on the ground engrossed in reading an inscribed scroll. A skull rests next to his right leg, symbolizing mortality and contemplation. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this etching and engraving masterpiece created around 1624. The plate measures approximately 7 1/2 x 9 13/16 inches (19 x 24.9 cm), allowing viewers to appreciate every intricate stroke of Ribera's skilled hand. Lo Spagnoletto was a Spanish painter born in Jativa in 1591 but later settled in Naples. His profound understanding of light and shadow is showcased through the expert use of chiaroscuro technique employed here, creating a dramatic atmosphere that draws viewers into the scene. Beyond St Jerome lies a majestic lion, representing strength and courage amidst spiritual contemplation. This juxtaposition between human vulnerability and animal power adds depth to the composition while reflecting on themes of faith and resilience. Artokoloro has beautifully captured this timeless artwork through their high-quality printing techniques, ensuring that art enthusiasts can enjoy this exquisite piece for years to come.
