EDITORS COMMENTS
This Flemish tapestry, titled "Penitent St. Jerome, or St. Jerome in the Desert" is a stunning piece of art attributed to the circle of Hans Memling or Gerard David. Created between 1510 and 1520 in Brussels, this masterpiece showcases the exceptional craftsmanship of an unknown weaver, possibly from Pieter van Aelst's workshop. Measuring an impressive 290x275 cm, this silk and wool fabric print now resides in the Royal Palace of La Granja de San Ildefonso in Spain. Its rich colors and intricate details transport viewers back to a time when religious devotion was paramount. The tapestry depicts St. Jerome, known for his penitential practices and scholarly contributions to Christianity. In this scene set against a desert backdrop, he is shown deep in contemplation as he engages with his faith amidst solitude. The artist skillfully captures every fold of fabric and expression on St. Jerome's face, bringing him to life within the woven threads. The attention to detail is remarkable; it almost feels as if one could reach out and touch the texture of his robe or feel the warmth of sunlight filtering through palm fronds. This Flemish tapestry serves not only as a visual delight but also as a testament to the artistic genius that thrived during this period. It stands proudly among other masterpieces at Tapestry Museum - National Heritage (Patrimonio Nacional) inv 10026285 at Real Sitio de San Ildefonso in Segovia, Spain
