Girolamo Mazzola Bedoli
(Viadana 1500–1569 Parma)
St. Jerome, oil on panel, 72 x 57 cm, framed,
We are grateful to Prof Mina Gregori for her assistance with the cataloguing of this painting. Prof Gregori points out that parts of the foreground may have been executed by a member of the artist’s workshop (information by phone, July 2010).
Bedoli, who was trained alongside Parmigianino by his uncle, Pier Illario Mazzola, is considered to be one of the most important exponents of Emilian Mannerism. By marrying the daughter of his uncle, whose name he adopted, he was able to take over his father-in-law’s large workshop on the latter’s death. Shortly after the early death of his more famous workshop colleague, Parmigianino, Mazzola completed several unfinished altarpieces by the young master, thus ensuring his a leading role for himself and his workshop in the Parma landscape for several years. Contemporary influences of Roman origin are evident in his work, but there are also northern elements in the present painting, which may be seen as a characteristic work of Emilian Mannerism of the middle of the century.
