Stories of St. Jerome 1577

Alessandro Allori's "Stories of St. Jerome" (1577) is a fresco located in Santa Maria Novella, Florence. The fresco depicts several scenes from the life of the saint, including his translation of the Bible. The artwork is a prime example of Mannerism, a style characterized by elongated figures, dramatic poses, and a focus on detail. Allori was a prominent Florentine painter known for his elegant compositions and refined use of color. The "Stories of St. Jerome" is a testament to his skill and reflects the artistic trends of the late 16th century.
