Circle of AGOSTINO CARRACCI (Bologna, 1557-Parma, 1602). "St. Jerome." Oil on copper. It has frame following models of the seventeenth century. Measurements: 22 x 16,5 cm; 36 x 29 cm (frame). In this devotional copper the author offers us an unusual image in the representation of St. Jerome, with the protagonist in the foreground. Only accompanied by a crucifix, his bearded face and red mantle indicate that he is one of the most popular saints in artistic representations. Saint Jerome appears as a saint with a bushy gray beard who concentrates his reflective gaze on the cross of Christ, assuming the prototypical gesture of devotional representations. Behind him, a space can be seen that is open to a blue sky on the right side, in such a way that his eremitical retreat can be sensed. At the beginning of the 17th century, at the same time that Caravaggio was breaking away from Mannerist and even Renaissance conventions, a new way of understanding painting, usually called "eclecticism", was emerging in Bologna under the guidance of Carracci. It sought to integrate the best of each master, especially Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian, Veronese and Correggio. However, Annibale Carracci's personality led him to evolve towards a very personal classicism, which did not disdain certain Caravaggiesque achievements.
