Hendrick Van Somer (Lokeren 1607 – Naples 1656) Saint Jerome Oil on canvas 92 x 71 cm This work is accompanied by an expert report by Professor Nicola Spinosa, available via email. Van Somer, whose name was Italianized to Enrico Fiammingo, ranks among the most significant artistic figures in Naples during the 17th century. Having arrived in 1624, he worked in Ribera’s workshop, whose graphic style he frequently emulated. Furthermore, his attention to Caravaggio is evident in his modulation of light and the organization of chiaroscuro. In the following decades, Van Somer reflected on the artistic landscape around him, softening the dark and naturalistic tensions and embracing a Neo-Venetian style of painting based on the expressive power of color.
