The basis of the text of the Swiss theologian Hans Urs von Baltazar (1905-1988) about the image of St. Jerome of Stridon, as Albrecht Dürer, was embodied, is a lecture read by the author to the 500th anniversary of the artist (Nuremberg, 1971) , From the perspective of the Christian thinker and art critic, Baltazar explores how Dürer evolves the perception of the life and theological feat of the great philologist, the creator of the canonical Latin text of the Bible. The exhaustive series of works of the master from the earliest to the masterpiece "St. Jerome in the cell" related to the cycle of "workshops of engravings" is traced.
"What are we talking about? Of course, about the focus of a spiritual task, which coincided with the focus of the genius of Jerome: about what? So attracted humanists and Christian philologists in him, and Dürer considered to be embodied in the visual image. " The indicated coincidence and genius of the “roaring lion "of Jerome, according to Balthazar, was that this powerful character, which has an unlined temperament, an adherent of an unmistakable high word, was able to in the final of his life - as in the final of the Durers" series - to dissolve in silence, subordinate to the silence, subordinating "Full -Wending and loud Divine Word", which is born only in the "obviously eternal" silence, for which Dürer found a unique visual image
