"St Jerome Kneeling In Prayer, Looking Down" (b., Holl.102; H.140; Bb.35-h) is a notable etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1635. This work is part of Rembrandt's extensive oeuvre of religious subjects, which he explored throughout his career. The etching depicts St. Jerome, one of the four great Latin Fathers of the Church, in a moment of deep contemplation and prayer. Known for his translation of the Bible into Latin (the Vulgate), St. Jerome is often portrayed in art as a scholarly figure, frequently accompanied by a lion, a reference to the legend of him removing a thorn from a lion's paw.

In this particular etching, Rembrandt captures St. Jerome in a humble and intimate posture, kneeling and looking downwards, suggesting a moment of personal devotion and introspection. The saint is depicted with a long beard and simple robes, emphasizing his ascetic lifestyle. The background is minimally detailed, focusing the viewer's attention on the figure of Jerome and his spiritual act.

Rembrandt's mastery of etching techniques is evident in this work. He employs a range of line qualities and densities to create a rich texture and depth, enhancing the emotional intensity of the scene. The use of light and shadow, a hallmark of Rembrandt's style, is skillfully applied to highlight the saint's face and hands, drawing the viewer's eye to the focal points of the composition.

"St Jerome Kneeling In Prayer, Looking Down" is a testament to Rembrandt's ability to convey profound religious sentiment through his art. The etching reflects his deep understanding of human emotion and his skill in rendering it with technical precision. This work remains an important example of Rembrandt's contribution to religious art and his enduring legacy as one of the greatest artists of the Dutch Golden Age.
