The Prophets: Jeremiah

Baccio Baldini

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts Jeremiah, a prophet, sitting on a pile of straw or hay. He wears a long robe with patterned cuffs and hem, and a decorative crown-like hat. His right arm rests on his chest, while his left hand holds a book or scroll. A ribbon banner above him reads "IEREMIA PROFETA". The image is in black and white, with detailed linework and shading. The background is a plain grayish-beige color. Jeremiah's facial expression appears contemplative, and his posture conveys a sense of introspection. The overall style suggests an old, possibly Renaissance-era illustration.
