Description
Saint Jerome in his study by candlelight. The scholar is in deep thought, staring at a scull in his left hand. On the wall behind him hang his cardinal's hat, a rosary and, to the left, a mirror. Above him a shelve with an hourglass on it. On the table in front of him are an opened book and an inkstand.
