Saint Jerome — painting — unknown publisher, series number not visible

Description

Saint Jerome, bearded and wearing a red robe, holds a skull in his left hand and rests his index finger on his forehead, as a sign of meditation. On the table in front of him, an open book, another closed book, and an inkwell with a quill. In the background, a cross with the crucified Christ. The style is realistic and dark, typical of Renaissance religious painting.
