About the piece
Attributed to the French Baroque painter Nicolas Régnier, this 1632 oil painting depicts Saint Jerome in a moment of divine inspiration. The work showcases the dramatic light and shadow characteristic of the Caravaggesque style, emphasizing the texture of the saint's weathered skin and the brilliant sheen of his red drapery against a dark, atmospheric background.
