"Saint Jerome" is an oil on panel painting by the Italian High Renaissance artist Cesare da Sesto (1477–1523). Created in the early 16th century, this artwork depicts Saint Jerome, a Christian priest, theologian, and historian, who is best known for his translation of the Bible into Latin, known as the Vulgate. The painting is a representation of the saint often found in Renaissance art, showcasing him as a penitent hermit, reflecting on mortality and the divine.

In the painting, Saint Jerome is typically shown in a contemplative state, often accompanied by iconographic elements such as a cardinal's hat, indicating his status within the Church, and a lion, referencing the legend of Jerome removing a thorn from a lion's paw. The presence of a skull and a crucifix in the composition serves as memento mori, a reminder of the inevitability of death and the importance of Christian salvation.

Cesare da Sesto was a notable follower of Leonardo da Vinci, and his influence is evident in the painting's composition and the delicate rendering of Saint Jerome's features. The work is characterized by its fine detail, harmonious color palette, and the emotional depth conveyed through Jerome's introspective gaze. The landscape in the background further emphasizes the theme of solitude and the saint's connection with the natural world.

The painting is an important example of Cesare da Sesto's oeuvre and contributes to our understanding of the transmission of Leonardo's style and techniques to his pupils and followers. "Saint Jerome" by Cesare da Sesto is not only a testament to the artist's skill and the influence of his contemporaries but also provides insight into the religious and cultural context of the period in which it was created.
