“St. Jerome in his study” – the painting by an anonymous painter that dates back to the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries from the Lanckoroński collection and is currently in the collection of the Wawel Royal Castle (inventory number 7958), is associated with the schools of Bologne and Ferrara. As a part of the predella of an altarpiece which no longer exists, it seems to be a mature work of art, created as a combination of artistic experiences of northern Italy. The painting includes stylistic and formal solutions of two intersecting trends emerging from Italian and Dutch paintings of the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries, with a particular emphasis on the development of the real space, as well as the space based on illusion. In accordance with a prevailing at that time Alberti’s idea of the frame of the painting as an open window, the composition of the panel was based on the principle of a closed box – a coffer without a wall – the recto of the painting, so that a viewer could gain an inside perspective. Hence, by using principles of descriptive perspective, the painter created a real interior of a humanist studiolo, with deceptive depth of space, which is widened by the niches of the illusionistically painted cupboard shelves and objects placed on them. The most compelling and surprising element of the painting is a massive wall located on its left side, along with the illusionistically painted niches, piled one above the other. Only at this point may one have an impression that the recto of the painting is disturbed by delicate tassels strung on a string of a cardinal’s hat that seem to be “spilling” outside the niche. The semi-circular niche becomes a place for an extraordinary exhibition of still life – the cardinal’s hat, which, along with the lion is the most obvious attribute of St. Jerome. This trompe – l’oeil, surprising in its modest form, but at the same time very original, becomes a meaningful link connecting the South with the North – reality with illusion. At the same time, both niches are a distant reflection of the Hellenistic paintings of Herculaneum and Pompeii, which presented a still life (Xenion) arranged on two shelves, placed one above the other. The painter does not limit himself only to the niches. He also reflects the desire for reality that is constantly intriguing him in the way he creates the objects filling up the stone shelves of St. Jerome’s studiolo.

Tronująca Madonna z Dzieciątkiem z kolekcji Lanckorońskich na Wawelu (nr inw. 7908) wraz z zachowanymi w innych zbiorach kwaterami ze św. Bartłomiejem, św. Wawrzyńcem, św. Katarzyną i św. Cecylią oraz z przynależącymi do zwieńczenia tablicami z błogosławiącym Chrystusem i Ewangelistami, przynależała pierwotnie do rozproszonego obecnie po świecie retabulum ołtarzowego, gdzie stanowiła część centralną. Nastawę wykonał ok. 1340 r. Bernardo Daddi z przeznaczeniem do kaplicy śś. Bartłomieja i Wawrzyńca w karmelitańskim kościele Santa Maria del Carmine we Florencji. Tablica po rozdzieleniu około połowy XVIII wieku trafiła przed 1903 r. do wiedeńskich zbiorów Karola Lanckorońskiego (1848-1933), a wraz z nimi znalazła się w 1994 r. na Wawelu. Kompozycja i treści ideowe kwatery pozostają w ścisłym związku z wcześniejszą bracką tablicą ołtarzową z Santa Maria del Carmine we Florencji, ukazującą Tronującą Madonnę z Dzieciątkiem i dwoma aniołami oraz umieszczonym w jej zwieńczeniu, oddzielonym pierwotnie ramą, Chrystusem Błogosławiącym między dwoma aniołami, przypisywaną Maestro della Sant’Agata z ok. 1270 r., przechowywaną obecnie w kaplicy Brancaccich. Równocześnie wawelska kwatera wpisuje się w szereg toskańskich Madonn określanych w ikonografii jako Regina coeli lub Maestà. Dokładna analiza na podstawie tekstów źródłowych skondensowanych na tablicy Daddiego treści ideowych oraz podjęta próba rekonstrukcji całości pozwala wysunąć hipotezę, iż wykonana w jego warsztacie nastawa ilustrowała wizję Niebieskiego Jeruzalem, opartą na tekście Apokalipsy św. Jana Apostoła. Artysta na tablicy z Tronującą Madonną odwołał się do prawdy o królewskiej godności Maryi, Jej współudziale w tajemnicy Wcieleni i Odkupienia, samego zaś Chrystusa ukazał jako Baranka Bożego, który zgładził grzechy świata i dlatego święci patronowie kaplicy oddają Mu cześć. Całościowe spojrzenie na wawelską tablicę oraz jej powiązania ze sztuką Toskanii pozwala stwierdzić, że jest to obiekt, który pod względem artystyczno-formalnym, jak i treściowym stanowi jeden z najcenniejszych przykładów włoskiego Trecenta, znajdujący się w zbiorach polskich.

Madonna and Child Enthroned in the Lanckoroński family collection in the Wawel castle (inv. No. 7908) along with the quarters with St. Bartholomew, St. Lawrence, St. Catherine and St. Cecilia that are preserved in other collections as well as with the panels that present the blessing Christ and the Evangelists used to be an essential part of a retable that can currently be found in various places across the world. The retable was made by Bernardo Daddi around 1340. It was intended to be a part of St. Bartholomew and St. Lawrence Chapel in the Carmelite church of Santa Maria del Carmine in Florence. After being divided into parts around 1750, the panel had become a part of the Viennese collection of Karol Lanckoroński (1848-1933) by the end of 1903. In 1994, the collection, including the previously mentioned panel, was placed in the Wawel Royal Castle, where it is held today. The composition and the ideological content of the quarter are closely related to an earlier confraternal altar panel from the church of Santa Maria del Carmine that includes Madonna and Child Enthroned with Two Angels as well as Christ Blessing between Two Angels placed at the top and originally separated with a frame. The altar panel, credited to Maestro della Sant’Agata (around 1270) is currently stored in the Brancacci chapel. The Wawel quarter is in line with Tuscan Madonnas that are defined in the iconography as the Regina Coeli or Maestà. A thorough analysis of ideological content presented on the Daddi panel based on source materials as well as an attempt to reconstruct the whole panel leads us to the conclusion that the retable made in Daddi’s workshop presented the vision of Heavenly Jerusalem, based on the Revelation to St. John. Through the Madonna and Child Enthroned with Two Angels panel the artist referred to the truth about the royal dignity of Mary and her participation in the mystery of the Incarnation and Redemption whereas Christ Himself was presented as the Lamb of God who took away the sins of the world. Therefore, the patron saints of the chapel worship Him. A holistic view of the Wawel panel and the way it is connected with the art of Tuscany shows that it is the object that, in artistic and formal terms as well as in content, is one of the most valuable examples of Italian Trecento that can be found in Polish collections.
