"St. Girolamo" is a notable painting by the influential Italian Baroque artist Annibale Carracci, dating from the late 16th or early 17th century. The work depicts Saint Jerome, also known as Hieronymus, a Christian scholar and translator renowned for his translation of the Bible into Latin, known as the Vulgate. Saint Jerome is often depicted in art with a lion, in reference to a legend that he removed a thorn from a lion's paw, and with a stone or rock, symbolizing his penitential practices.

In Carracci's rendition, St. Jerome is typically shown as an ascetic figure, immersed in scholarly or devotional activity, which reflects the Counter-Reformation ideals of piety and religious contemplation. The painting is a testament to Carracci's mastery of chiaroscuro and his ability to convey deep emotion and spirituality through his work. His use of dramatic lighting and a controlled palette emphasizes the saint's inner turmoil and dedication to faith.

Annibale Carracci, along with his brother Agostino and cousin Ludovico, played a pivotal role in the development of the Baroque style in painting. Their work marked a departure from the mannerist style that had dominated the previous era, favoring a more naturalistic approach to the depiction of figures and space. "St. Girolamo" exemplifies Carracci's skill in blending the naturalistic observation of the Renaissance with the emotional intensity that would come to characterize Baroque art.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical and cultural context. It reflects the religious and intellectual climate of the time, as well as the personal devotions of the artist. "St. Girolamo" by Annibale Carracci remains an important work in the study of Baroque painting and continues to be admired for its technical brilliance and its evocative portrayal of one of Christianity's most revered saints.
