"St. Jerome Reading in an Italian Landscape" is a 1653 painting by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn. This work of art depicts Saint Jerome, a Christian scholar and translator renowned for his translation of the Bible into Latin, engaged in reading within a serene Italian landscape. The painting is executed in oil on panel and measures 52.7 by 40.9 centimeters. It is part of a series of works by Rembrandt that illustrate the life and works of Saint Jerome, showcasing the artist's fascination with the saint's scholarly pursuits and penitent lifestyle.

In this painting, Rembrandt combines the Northern European tradition of detailed, introspective religious figures with the expansive, idyllic landscapes characteristic of Italian Renaissance art. The choice to place Saint Jerome in an Italian landscape may reflect the saint's historical association with Italy, as well as the influence of Italian art on Rembrandt's work. The composition is notable for its use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and depth, a hallmark of Rembrandt's mature style.

"St. Jerome Reading in an Italian Landscape" is admired for its quietude and contemplative mood, as well as its masterful rendering of textures and natural light. The painting is currently held in a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art institutions around the world, contributing to the scholarly discussion on Rembrandt's landscape works and his portrayal of religious figures in solitude.

As a significant example of Rembrandt's mid-17th-century output, "St. Jerome Reading in an Italian Landscape" continues to attract scholarly attention for its artistic and historical significance, offering insights into the artist's techniques, inspirations, and his engagement with themes of spirituality and nature.
