Description
Spanish school; second half of the 17th century.
"Saint Roque".
Oil on canvas. Antique re-colouring.
It presents restorations and mould marks.
It has an 18th century frame.
Measurements: 110 x 82 cm; 122,5 x 93 cm (frame).
Devotional image belonging to the Spanish Baroque, which presents the saint San Roque, showing his wound to an angel. The saint appears as he is usually depicted in art, with the garb and staff of a pilgrim, raising the bottom of his habit to show the marks of the plague on his thigh and his dog beside him. Saint Roch is a 14th-century saint whose legendary French or Italian biographies date back to the end of the 15th century. In fact, he is arguably better known through popular devotion than through his life story. He was born in Montpellier around 1350 and orphaned at a very early age. When his parents died, he distributed the family fortune among the poor and hospitals, took the habit of a pilgrim and in 1367 went to Rome, where he stayed for three years, until 1371. Arriving in Acquapendente, in the Apennines, he found a city devastated by the plague; he stayed and devoted himself to assisting and encouraging the sick, curing them. On returning from his pilgrimage, he felt the first symptoms of the disease in Plasencia, so he withdrew to a forest to die in solitude and not infect anyone. According to legend, a dog fed him by bringing him bread every day, and an angel cured him. When he recovered, he left for Montpellier, where no one recognised him, not even his uncle. He was denounced as a spy and imprisoned, and one day his jailer found him dead. In reality he died in Lombardy, around 1379. This legend is partly copied from that of Saint Alexius, who returned from the Holy Places to die in Rome as an anonymous beggar, under the staircase of his father's house.
