Saint Jerome in the Wilderness

1585–90

Workshop of Veronese (Paolo Caliari; Italian, 1528–1588)

Italy

Paolo Veronese maintained an active workshop that included members of his family to meet the demand for paintings in his style. This picture may have been a collaboration between the artist’s son, Carlo Caliari, and brother Benedetto Caliari, who painted the landscape and figural elements, respectively. The broad brushstrokes do not demonstrate the freedom or effects of flickering light found in Veronese’s own work.
