"Saint Jerome in the Wilderness" is a 15th-century painting attributed to Nicola di Maestro Antonio d'Ancona, an Italian artist active during the early Renaissance period. The artwork depicts Saint Jerome, a Christian scholar and translator known for his translation of the Bible into Latin, which became known as the Vulgate. In this representation, Saint Jerome is typically shown as a hermit, having retreated to the desert to live a life of penance and contemplation.

The painting is characterized by its detailed landscape and the portrayal of Saint Jerome engaged in his scholarly work or in acts of penitence, often accompanied by a lion, according to the legend that he removed a thorn from the lion's paw. The work reflects the religious and cultural values of the time, emphasizing the virtues of solitude, study, and piety.

Nicola di Maestro Antonio d'Ancona was known for his religious works and his contribution to the spread of Renaissance artistic values from Florence to the Marche region of Italy, where he was predominantly active. His style is noted for its combination of Gothic and early Renaissance elements, with a particular attention to naturalistic details and the use of vivid colors.

"Saint Jerome in the Wilderness" is significant for its art historical value, providing insight into the transitional period between the Gothic and Renaissance styles, as well as for its spiritual message, which resonated with contemporary audiences. The painting is an example of the devotional images that played a central role in the religious life of the period, serving as an aid for personal reflection and prayer.

The current location of the painting, its provenance, and its condition are also of interest to art historians and contribute to the understanding of the work's historical journey and its preservation. As with many works of this era, the attribution to Nicola di Maestro Antonio d'Ancona may be subject to scholarly debate, and the painting's study can contribute to the broader discourse on the attribution and cataloging of Renaissance artworks.
