EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Saint Bartholomew" by Jusepe de Ribera, a renowned Spanish painter from the 17th century. Painted in 1632 using oil on canvas, this masterpiece measures 119x98 cm and is currently housed at the San Diego Museum of Art in the USA. Ribera's expertise in tenebrism and chiaroscuro techniques is evident in this painting. The play of light and shadow creates a dramatic atmosphere that adds depth to Saint Bartholomew's portrayal. The saint is depicted as a mature man with a flowing beard, dressed in an intricate robe. The composition focuses on Saint Bartholomew's upper body, emphasizing his strong presence. Holding an open book close to his chest, he exudes wisdom and knowledge. His intense gaze suggests deep contemplation or perhaps even divine revelation. The attention to detail in Ribera's brushwork is remarkable; every fold of fabric and strand of hair is meticulously rendered. This level of craftsmanship further enhances the realism and emotional impact of the artwork. Thanks to generous contributions from art patrons such as Tatiana and Robert Dotson, Jene and Paul Mosher, Taffin and Gene Ray, Ellen and Bill Whelan, Demi and Frank Rogozienski, Jill Lozier, Rebecca Mitchell, Rana Sampson, and Jerry Sanders, this valuable piece has found its home at the San Diego Museum of Art for visitors to appreciate its beauty for generations to come.
