EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "St. Jerome and St. Ambrose" created by Juan de Borgona in approximately 1510. The piece, measuring 87.6x120.7 cm, is housed at The Bowes Museum in Barnard Castle, County Durham, UK. The painting depicts two influential figures from early Christianity: St. Jerome and St. Ambrose, both revered as Latin Fathers of the Church during their time. With tempera and gold on panel technique, Borgona skillfully brings these historical figures to life. Intriguingly captured within this image is St. Jerome diligently translating biblical texts while wearing his cardinal robes and a scholarly expression on his face. Meanwhile, St. Ambrose can be seen deep in thought with a quill in hand as he writes theological works. The attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke reflects the artist's mastery of capturing human emotion and intellectual pursuit through artistry. This print not only captures the essence of this magnificent painting but also allows viewers to appreciate its beauty up close without being physically present at The Bowes Museum. As we gaze upon this masterpiece by Juan de Borgona, we are reminded of the profound impact these two saints had on shaping Christian theology and scholarship during their lifetimes—a testament to their enduring legacy that continues to inspire generations even today.
