"Landscape with the Penitent St Jerome" is a 16th-century oil painting by Flemish artist Lucas Gassel. Created in 1541, the painting is a quintessential example of Northern Renaissance art, showcasing Gassel's skill in landscape painting and his attention to detail. The work depicts Saint Jerome, a Christian scholar and translator of the Bible, in a moment of penitence in a vast and detailed landscape. This scene is a common theme in Christian art, illustrating the saint's withdrawal into the wilderness to live the life of a hermit.

The painting is notable for its intricate portrayal of the natural world, which reflects the period's growing interest in the accurate depiction of nature. Gassel's landscape is filled with a variety of plants, animals, and geological formations, rendered with a high degree of realism. The work is also an example of the world landscape, a genre that emerged in the early 16th century in the works of artists like Joachim Patinir, where the landscape itself becomes the subject of the painting, rather than just a backdrop for human activity.

In "Landscape with the Penitent St Jerome," Gassel combines this detailed naturalism with religious symbolism. The figure of St Jerome, often accompanied by a lion according to legend, is shown engaging in penitential acts, such as beating his chest with a stone. The vastness of the landscape may symbolize the spiritual journey and the magnitude of Jerome's contemplation and penance.

The painting is a testament to Gassel's mastery of both landscape and religious subjects, and it remains an important work for the study of Northern Renaissance art. It is held in high regard for its aesthetic qualities and its reflection of the cultural and religious values of the time. The current location of the painting is not specified in this introduction, but it would typically be found in a museum or private collection known for its holdings of Renaissance art.
