Description

The painting "Prophet Jeremiah and Christ" by the artist Maestro De La Annunciación Aix is ​​a work of art that stands out for its artistic style and composition. This work was created in the 15th century and its original size is 152 x 86 cm.

The Master of the Annunciation Aix is ​​known for his gothic style and his ability to create detailed and realistic scenes. In this work, we can see how the artist has used the chiaroscuro technique to give depth and texture to the figure of Christ and the prophet Jeremiah.

The composition of the painting is very interesting, since the artist has placed Christ in the center of the scene, surrounded by a series of characters who adore and venerate him. The prophet Jeremiah, for his part, stands to the left of Christ, looking towards him with reverence and devotion.

Color is another outstanding aspect of this work. The artist has used a rich and vibrant color palette, giving the painting a sense of vitality and energy. The gold and red tones are especially noticeable as they contrast with the darker tones of the clothing and backgrounds.

The history of the painting is fascinating, as it is believed to have been created for the Saint Jerome chapel in the cathedral of Aix-en-Provence, France. This chapel was built in the 15th century and was dedicated to Saint Jerome, one of the fathers of the Church.

Finally, a little known aspect of this work is that the artist used the tempera on panel technique to create it. This technique consists of mixing pigments with a solution of egg and water, and then applying it to a wooden board. This technique was very popular in medieval and renaissance times, and it gives the painting a unique texture and increased durability.
