EDITORS COMMENTS
This 16th-century oil on canvas print titled "St. Jerome in the Wilderness" by Lambert Sustris takes us back to a time of religious devotion and contemplation. The painting, measuring 95x112 cm, is housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. The image depicts St. Jerome, a prominent figure in Christianity known for his translation of the Bible into Latin, immersed in deep concentration as he reads sacred texts amidst a serene landscape. The artist skillfully captures the essence of solitude and introspection through his masterful use of light and shadow. A striking element within this composition is the presence of a majestic lion resting peacefully beside St. Jerome. Symbolically representing both danger and protection, this creature serves as a reminder of God's power over all creation. Sustris' work exemplifies the Renaissance style with its meticulous attention to detail and realistic portrayal of human anatomy. Through this painting, we witness not only an artistic masterpiece but also an exploration into faith and spirituality. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from centuries past, we are reminded that art has always been intertwined with religion and continues to inspire awe and contemplation today.
