"Saint Jerome Writing a Letter" is a 17th-century oil painting by the Italian Baroque artist Francesco Fracanzano. The artwork depicts Saint Jerome, a Christian scholar and one of the four great Doctors of the Church, engrossed in the act of writing a letter. Saint Jerome is renowned for his translation of the Bible into Latin, known as the Vulgate, and is often portrayed in art with a lion, in reference to the legend that he tamed a lion by removing a thorn from its paw.

Fracanzano's painting captures the intellectual and spiritual intensity of Saint Jerome, reflecting the Baroque era's emphasis on dramatic expression and the interplay of light and shadow. The composition focuses on the saint, illuminated by a source of light that highlights the textures and folds of his garments and the concentration on his face. The inclusion of books, papers, and the quill pen in the scene underscores Jerome's scholarly pursuits and his significant contributions to Christian theology and biblical studies.

Francesco Fracanzano (1612–1656) was an Italian painter from the Baroque period, known for his religious and mythological scenes, as well as his dynamic use of chiaroscuro and powerful characterizations. Although not as widely recognized as his contemporaries, Fracanzano's works are appreciated for their emotional depth and artistic skill.

"Saint Jerome Writing a Letter" is a testament to Fracanzano's ability to convey the inner life of his subjects and to the enduring appeal of Saint Jerome as a figure of devotion and intellectual fervor. The painting is an important example of Baroque religious art and contributes to our understanding of the period's aesthetic and cultural values.
