Albrecht Dürer's "St. Jerome in His Study (Without Cardinal's Robes)" is a detailed pen and ink drawing that depicts the influential theologian and scholar in his workspace. The drawing, created sometime during Dürer's lifetime between 1471 and 1528, showcases Dürer's meticulous detail and mastery of linear perspective. St. Jerome sits at a desk, engrossed in study, his presence marked by his signature long beard and thoughtful expression. The presence of a skull on the table is a memento mori, a reminder of mortality, while the other objects, like the hourglass and inkwell, reflect the tools of his intellectual pursuit.
