"St Jerome in his Study" is a notable fresco created by the Italian Renaissance painter Domenico Ghirlandaio around 1480. This artwork is a part of the extensive fresco cycle that Ghirlandaio and his workshop executed in the Church of Ognissanti in Florence, Italy. The fresco depicts St. Jerome, one of the four Latin Doctors of the Church, renowned for his translation of the Bible into Latin (the Vulgate), and his scholarly works.

In this fresco, St. Jerome is portrayed in a contemplative and studious pose, seated at his desk within a meticulously detailed study. The setting is rich with iconographic elements that emphasize his scholarly pursuits and ascetic lifestyle. Surrounding him are various books, manuscripts, and writing instruments, symbolizing his dedication to learning and his role as a translator and theologian. The inclusion of a lion, often associated with St. Jerome due to the legend of him removing a thorn from a lion's paw, adds a narrative and symbolic depth to the composition.

Ghirlandaio's attention to detail and use of perspective in "St Jerome in his Study" reflect the influence of contemporary advancements in art and science during the Renaissance. The fresco showcases his skill in rendering textures and materials, from the wooden furniture to the intricate patterns on the textiles. The naturalistic depiction of light and shadow further enhances the three-dimensionality of the scene, creating a sense of intimacy and realism.

This work is an excellent example of Ghirlandaio's ability to blend humanist ideals with religious themes, capturing both the intellectual and spiritual dimensions of St. Jerome's character. It also highlights the artist's contribution to the development of fresco painting during the Renaissance, marking a significant moment in the history of art.
