"Saint Jerome Writing," also known as "Saint Jerome in His Study" or "Saint Jerome," is a painting by the Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, executed around 1605–1606. The work is one of several paintings by Caravaggio that depict the hermit saint engaged in scholarly activity. In this particular representation, Saint Jerome is shown in the act of writing, symbolizing his contribution to the translation of the Bible into Latin, known as the Vulgate.

The painting is remarkable for its dramatic use of chiaroscuro, a technique Caravaggio pioneered, which employs strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and depth. The saint's intense concentration and the quiet solitude of his study are vividly conveyed through Caravaggio's masterful handling of light, shadow, and color. The composition is intimate, with Saint Jerome's powerful, aged figure dominating the canvas as he leans over his work, surrounded by the tools of his scholarly pursuits.

"Saint Jerome Writing" is housed in the Galleria Borghese in Rome, a testament to Caravaggio's enduring legacy and his influence on the development of Western art. The painting is often praised for its emotional realism and the humanistic portrayal of the saint, which reflects the Counter-Reformation ideals of the Catholic Church during Caravaggio's time. As with many of Caravaggio's works, "Saint Jerome Writing" is admired for its psychological depth and the artist's ability to capture the essence of the human spirit in moments of quiet reflection and profound devotion.
