Altar Piece Augustine Basilica Called Collegiate Hippo Ildefonso Jaume Maria Renaissance 1450s Santa


EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning altarpiece, created by the renowned Valencian painter Jaume Baça (also known as Jaume Jaume or Jacomart), dates back to the mid-15th century. The work, which is housed in the Basilica of Santa Maria in Xàtiva, Spain, is a testament to the artistic prowess of the Valencian School during the Renaissance period. The horizontal composition of the altarpiece features the Virgin Mary, seated on a throne, surrounded by various saints and religious figures. The central figure of the composition is Saint Mary Magdalene, who is depicted holding an alabaster jar, a symbol of her penitence and devotion. To her right, Saint Augustine is shown with an open book, symbolizing his role as a Doctor of the Church and a prominent theologian. Saint Bartholomew, identified by the flaying knife and his attribute, the skin, is depicted to the left of the Virgin. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the altarpiece are achieved through the use of oil on wood. The artist's skillful use of color and light creates a sense of depth and three-dimensionality, drawing the viewer into the scene. The inclusion of a hippopotamus at the base of the altarpiece is a reference to the legend that Saint Bartholomew was martyred in Armenia, where hippos were believed to inhabit the rivers. This altarpiece, which is part of the collection of the Collegiate Church of Santa Maria la Seu in Xàtiva, is a prime example of the artistic talents of Jaume Baça and the Valencian School during the 1450s. Its intricate details, rich colors, and religious symbolism continue to captivate viewers and inspire awe, making it a valuable addition to the artistic heritage of Spain.
