St Jerome near a Cave 

This painting by Flemish artist Maarten de Vos depicts the iconic Christian figure of St. Jerome in a cave. Known for his biblical translations, St. Jerome is shown with a quill in hand and a book open before him. He is accompanied by a lion, a symbol of his unwavering faith and the legend of his taming the animal. The detailed background with a view of a landscape, likely inspired by the artist's travels, adds a sense of depth and realism to the scene. This artwork embodies the artistic trends of the late 16th century, showcasing the blend of realism and religious symbolism prevalent during the Renaissance.
