"Saint Jerome Penitent" is a notable oil painting by the Greek-born artist Domenikos Theotokopoulos, widely known as El Greco, created between 1610 and 1614. This work is part of a series of paintings by El Greco depicting Saint Jerome, a Christian scholar and translator who is most famous for his translation of the Bible into Latin, known as the Vulgate. The painting portrays Jerome in the wilderness, reflecting the period of penance and contemplation he underwent during his life.

In this particular rendition, El Greco captures Saint Jerome as an ascetic figure, engaged in deep penitential thought. The saint is traditionally shown with a stone in his hand, used to beat his chest in penance, and is often accompanied by a skull and a crucifix, symbolizing mortality and redemption. El Greco's use of dramatic lighting and color, as well as his characteristic elongated forms and expressive brushwork, imbue the painting with a sense of spiritual intensity and emotional depth.

"Saint Jerome Penitent" is a testament to El Greco's unique style, which combines elements of the Byzantine tradition with Western painting techniques, and his profound interest in conveying the mystical and religious experiences of his subjects. The work is held in high esteem for its artistic merit and its contribution to the understanding of El Greco's late period, during which he produced some of his most profound religious works.

As of the time of writing, "Saint Jerome Penitent" is part of the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
