Juan Rodríguez Juárez (Mexico City, 1675 - 1728)
Juan Rodríguez Juárez (Mexico, 1675 - 1728) Pietà Huile sur cuivre. Vers 1702. 26,5 x 19,8 cm. Juan Rodríguez Juárez cultivait le genre retratista et se distinguait par la précision de son dessin, la solidité de ses figures et le traitement de ses traits. Fils d'Antonio Rodríguez et fils de José Juárez, grand représentant du baroque néo-hispanique, Juan Rodríguez Juárez s'est lancé très jeune dans la peinture et a été le contemporain de Cristóbal de Villalpando. Il a étudié avec José de Padilla, avec qui il a travaillé dans son atelier. Avec son frère Nicolás, il a été le précurseur d'un grand changement dans les thèmes, les modèles et le langage visuel, un fait qui a servi de base entre les siècles XVII et XVIII, et qui a donné naissance aux premières académies d'art en Nouvelle-Espagne. En plus d'être un grand dessinateur, il a créé de nombreuses œuvres religieuses. Le musée national d'art conserve d'importantes œuvres de son auteur, dont l'Autorretrato et La Vierge du Carmen avec Sainte Thérèse et Saint Jean de la Croix. Dans cette dernière œuvre, un livre sur papier datant de 1708, Rodríguez Juárez exalte les deux saints réformateurs de l'ordre du carmel : sainte Thérèse d'Ávila, théologienne de l'Église et fondatrice des carmels, et saint Juan de la Cruz, théologien et poète, auteur du célebre Cántico espiritual. Nous soulignons également le travail réalisé pour l'autel des Rois dans la cathédrale métropolitaine, avec les thèmes de l'appel de la Vierge et de l'adoration des Rois. Centré sur notre pièce, le cobre que nous présentons est d'une qualité extraordinaire, tant au niveau du dessin que de la couleur de la palette chromatique sélectionnée. Il est en cela très similaire et comparable au cobre de l'Entierro de Cristo qui est exposé actuellement au Metropolitan Museum of Art de New York. Les deux compositions, qui proviennent de gravures flammées, présentent la couleur brillante et le modèle vigoureux caractéristiques de la première phase de la carrière de l'artiste. Sans aucun doute, ils sont de la même main et, de fait, ils pourraient faire partie de la même série s'ils étaient comparés. Ce n'est pas seulement la palette de couleurs typique de l'artiste qui les rapproche, mais aussi les pinceladas, l'utilisation de l'or en brocards et en aureolas, les carnaciones et l'anatomie utilisée pour définir le corps humain qui sont identiques dans les deux œuvres.
