"Saint Jerome Kneeling in Prayer, Looking Down" is a notable work by the Dutch master Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, created in 1635 during the Baroque period, which is characterized by dramatic expression and strong contrasts of light and shadow. This artwork is a fine example of Rembrandt's religious-themed pieces, depicting Saint Jerome, a Christian scholar and translator known for his translation of the Bible into Latin, which became known as the Vulgate.

The etching and drypoint on paper measures 11.3 cm × 8.2 cm and is part of a series of works by Rembrandt that illustrate the life of Saint Jerome. In this intimate portrayal, the saint is shown in a moment of devout prayer, with his gaze directed downward in a humble and contemplative manner. The composition is notable for its use of chiaroscuro, a technique that Rembrandt mastered, which highlights the emotional intensity and spiritual fervor of the scene.

Saint Jerome is often depicted with a lion, in reference to the legend that he removed a thorn from a lion's paw, but in this particular work, Rembrandt chose to focus solely on the saint's introspective prayer, thus emphasizing his piety and dedication to God. The fine lines and attention to detail in the etching underscore Rembrandt's skill in conveying texture and depth, as well as his ability to capture the psychological nuances of his subjects.

This artwork is held in various collections around the world, including the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, and is frequently studied for its artistic and historical significance. "Saint Jerome Kneeling in Prayer, Looking Down" continues to be admired for its technical brilliance and its evocative portrayal of one of Christianity's most revered figures.
