EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Saint Bartholomew" by Jusepe de Ribera, also known as lo Spagnoletto. Painted in 1634, this oil on canvas artwork measures 127x101.6 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The painting depicts Saint Bartholomew, one of the apostles of Jesus Christ, with remarkable detail and skill. The elderly saint is portrayed standing upright, his bare chest revealing a weathered physique that speaks to a life dedicated to faith and service. His long gray beard and intense gaze add depth and character to his visage. Ribera's mastery of light and shadow is evident in the rich brown tones that dominate the composition, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of early seventeenth-century Baroque art. The artist's attention to detail extends beyond the figure itself; even the folds of Saint Bartholomew's garment are meticulously rendered. This powerful portrayal captures both the physicality and spirituality associated with biblical figures from this era. As viewers engage with this artwork, they are invited to contemplate themes such as aging, devotion, and religious identity. With its historical significance as an old master painting from Spain during the seventeenth century, "Saint Bartholomew" continues to inspire awe through its artistic brilliance today. This print allows admirers worldwide to appreciate Ribera's talent while reflecting on timeless aspects of human existence intertwined with faith.
