"Saint Jerome Hearing the Trumpet of the Last Judgment" is a significant oil painting by the Spanish Tenebrist painter Jusepe de Ribera, also known as José de Ribera or Lo Spagnoletto. Created in 1621, this work exemplifies Ribera's mastery of dramatic lighting and his intense, realistic approach to religious subjects, which was influenced by Caravaggio's style. The painting depicts Saint Jerome, a prominent Christian scholar and translator of the Bible into Latin, in a moment of spiritual awakening as he is roused by the sound of the trumpet signaling the Last Judgment.

Ribera's portrayal of Saint Jerome is notable for its stark chiaroscuro and the vivid expression of the saint's emotional response to the divine call. The saint is often shown in a contemplative state, but in this work, Ribera captures the immediacy of Jerome's experience with a sense of urgency and dynamism. The painting's composition, with Jerome's muscular, aged body and the detailed rendering of his hermit's cell, reflects Ribera's skill in combining naturalism with a deeply felt spirituality.

The work is part of a broader tradition of depicting Saint Jerome in isolation, a theme that was popular during the Counter-Reformation as an embodiment of penitence and scholarly devotion. Ribera's interpretation, however, is distinguished by its theatricality and emotional resonance, which aligns with the Baroque movement's emphasis on engaging the viewer's senses and emotions.

"Saint Jerome Hearing the Trumpet of the Last Judgment" is held in high regard for its art historical significance and is considered one of Ribera's masterpieces. It is often studied for its technical prowess and its role in the development of Baroque painting in Spain and Italy. The painting is housed in the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya in Barcelona, Spain, where it continues to be an object of admiration and scholarly interest.
