Apostle, book and club · Jude Thaddeus
Barocci, Theodoric of Prague, Van Dyck and George of La Tour represent Jude Thaddeus as apostle, companion of Simon and martyr with a serious presence.
Jude Thaddeus belongs to the group of twelve apostles and must be distinguished from Judas Iscariot. Traditions often bring him closer to Simon the Zealot in preaching and martyrdom. Barocci places them together with the Virgin and Child, recalling this lasting association. Theodoric of Prague gives Jude the frontality and strength of a chapel figure. Van Dyck integrates him into his series of apostles with monumental nobility. Georges de La Tour and Ribera favor a more human presence, modeled by chiaroscuro. Georges de La Tour and Ribera favor a more human presence, modeled by chiaroscuro. The club, the halberd or the ax recall his torture; the book evokes preaching and the epistle which bears his name. The selection "Saint Jude" puts particularly in relation to Virgin and Child with Simon and Jude - Federico Barocci and Saint Jude - Theodoric of Prague. His reading favors details.
Jude is often recognized by the instrument of martyrdom, but the book and the look first recall the apostle and his word.
