Vision of St. Jerome

Pierre Subleyras

The altarpieces of Subleyras, Batoni and Bottani hanging here were painted for the side altars in the Hieronymite church of Santi Cosma e Damiano. The church was renovated in 1738 by Abbot Paolo Alessandro Serponti who commissioned the work from artists active in Rome. Work by prestigious painters close to the order began to arrive in Milan in 1739, the flow only ceasing in 1745. In this signed and dated painting the artist is influenced by the Italian artistic tradition of the 17th century.
