Hieronymus Bosch BiographyThe master of the monstrous... the
discoverer of the unconscious. |
||||||
|
Bosch was a member of the
religious Brotherhood of Our Lady, for whom
Hieronymus Bosch painted several altarpieces for the
Cathedral of Saint John's, Hertogenbosch,
all of which are now lost. Hieronymus Bosch painter
probably never went far from home, although
records exist of a commission in 1504 from
Philip the Handsome (later king of Castile),
for a lost Last Judgment altarpiece. None of
Hieronymus Bosch art are dated, although the
artist signed many of them. |

Very little is known about him, which
somehow seems fitting since Hieronymus Bosch painting is so enigmatic. We know
that he adopted the name of the Dutch town
of s'Hertogenbosch (near Antwerp) as his
own, that he belonged to an
ultra-orthodox religious community called
the Brotherhood of Mary, and that in his own day
Hieronymus Bosch was famous. Many of
Hieronymus Bosch paintings are devotional, and there are
several on the theme of the Passion.
Bosch is specially famous for his fantastic, demon-filled paintings,
one of which is The Temptation of St
Anthony. Even a more naturalistic painting like The Path of Life contains sinister elements. Apart from the dog snarling at the poverty-stricken old man, and the animal bones and skull in the foreground, robbers attack a traveller in the background, and a gallows is visible on the skyline above the old man's head. The Path of Life is on the outer face of the wings of a Hieronymus Bosch triptych. The three inside panels display Bosch's tragic view of human existence, dwelling upon the triumph of sin. Man's exile from Paradise is shown on the left, the infinite variation of human vice in the centre, and its consequence--exile to Hell--on the right. |

A great contrast to the painting by Memling
is the one by Hieronymus (or Jerome) Bosch.
Hieronymus Bosch painter lived somewhat
later than Memling. Hieronymus Bosch painting
was influenced by the Flemish school of
painting. But whereas the Flemish artists created a world of serenity and reality, the world of Bosch is one of horror and imagination. his Vision of Tondalys both amuses and frightens us. We see a strange animal forcing a sharp stick through a large ear. A creature with a great head stretches open its mouth to show a table with people both behind and under it. A man caught in a big hat finds that one of his legs is sprouting roots. People fly through the air. In the background fire lights up the sky. We marvel at the extraordinary fantasy of Hieronymus Bosch painter. We also feel that the man himself must have been very morbid to have been so concerned with pain. Although Hieronymus Bosch art, with their weird animals and monsters, look as if they belong to the Middle Ages, they are not too unlike some of the Hieronymus Bosch paintings that are being produced today by artists who are called surrealists. They too paint a world of fantasy. Hieronymus Bosch lived at a time when the medieval period was giving way to a new age. Hieronymus Bosch paintings undoubtedly reflect his concern for a changing world. Looked at in this way Bosch and his fantasies are curiously up to date. |
