# Prophet Jeremiah [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [DONATELLO]() - Date: 1401-1450 - Technique: Marble, height 191 cm ## Commentary In the 1420s Donatello's search for a naturalistic rendering was intensified, and unrealistic elements have been discarded. This process reached its highest point in the Prophet Jeremiah and the Prophet Habakkuk and ended in the 1440s with Donatello's participation in the decoration of the Campanile. The statue is seen here on the Campanile, but now it is in the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo, Florence. <P> <TABLE ALIGN=LEFT CELLPADDING=5 BORDER=1 WIDTH=320 BGCOLOR="\#99CCCC"> <TR VALIGN=MIDDLE><TD><IMG SRC="/support/gif/listen.gif" BORDER=0 VALIGN=MIDDLE> Suggested listening \(streaming mp3, 19 minutes\):<BR><A HREF="\#" onClick="w=window.open \('/music1/16\_cent/tallis\_jeremiah.html', 'newWin', 'scrollbars=yes,status=no,dependent=yes,screenX=0,screenY=0,width=350,height=350'\);w.opener=this;w.focus\(\);return true"><B>Thomas Tallis: The Lamentations of Jeremiah</B></A> </TD></TR></TABLE> ## Related artworks - [Altarpiece with St John the Baptist]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation]() - [Annunciation]() - [Annunciation]() - [Annunciation]() - [Ascension of Christ]() - [Ascension of St John]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
