"St. Hieronymus" is an exquisite engraving by Dominicus Custos, a prominent Flemish artist and engraver of the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Custos, born around 1560 in Antwerp, was renowned for his detailed and expressive engravings, which often depicted religious and historical subjects. His works are characterized by their meticulous attention to detail, intricate line work, and the ability to convey profound emotion and narrative through the medium of engraving.

The engraving of St. Hieronymus, also known as St. Jerome, is a testament to Custos's skill and artistry. St. Jerome, a revered Christian scholar and translator of the Bible into Latin (the Vulgate), is a popular subject in Christian art. He is often depicted in a contemplative pose, surrounded by symbols of his scholarly life, such as books, a skull, and a lion, which according to legend, he tamed by removing a thorn from its paw.

In Custos's rendition, St. Jerome is portrayed with a deep sense of piety and introspection. The engraving captures the saint in a moment of quiet reflection, emphasizing his role as a learned and devout figure. The intricate details of the engraving, from the texture of St. Jerome's robes to the expressive lines of his face, showcase Custos's mastery of the medium.

Custos's work was highly influential in his time, and his engravings were widely circulated and admired. "St. Hieronymus" stands out as a significant example of his contribution to religious art and engraving. The piece not only highlights Custos's technical prowess but also his ability to infuse his works with a sense of spiritual depth and humanity. Today, Dominicus Custos's engravings, including "St. Hieronymus," are valued for their historical and artistic significance, offering insight into the religious and cultural milieu of the late Renaissance period.
