Lot 495 | Evert van Orley (Brüssel um 1491 - Brüssel nach 1527), circle of. From the Life of St. Roch.
Around 1520. Oil/oak panel. 112,5 x 66,5 cm. Rest. The plague saint Rochus (1345-1376) from Montpellier in the south of France was one of the most popular saints of the Middle Ages due to the recurring epidemics. He donated a large paternal fortune and began a pilgrimage to Rome at the age of 20. On the way there, he healed many plague sufferers in several cities. In Rome, he worked in a hospital and healed a cardinal, which earned him an audience with the Pope. He himself survived an infection on his return home. Marked by the illness and unrecognized, he was arrested in arrested as a spy in northern Italy. After his death in prison, he was identified by a cross-shaped birthmark on his chest. His veneration quickly spread throughout Europe. The artist has depicted key events from the saint's life in various architectural settings in a way that was familiar to viewers of the time from the painterly tradition and is not unfamiliar to today's viewers of graphic novels. The prominent church on the right-hand edge of the picture behind the Pope and his entourage is a free depiction of Old St. Peter's in Rome. The artist has placed this place of worship in a well-known northern Alpine town, which, due to its architectural details, can be located in Flanders. - Provenance: Private collection Schleswig-Holstein, North Germany. - Flemish painter. Together with his brother Bernhard, E. learned painting in their father Valentin's workshop. He became a master of the Guild of St. Luke in Antwerp in 1517. A cycle with the legend of St. Roch in St. James' Church in Antwerp is one of the most important works attributed to him. Lit.: Thieme-Becker, Bénézit.
