"Stories of St. Jerome" is a fresco painting created by Alessandro Allori in 1577, located in the Santa Maria Novella church in Florence, Italy. The artwork depicts St. Jerome, a prominent figure in early Christianity, amidst a group of men, possibly his disciples, in a rural setting. Allori, known for his Mannerist style, captures the dramatic interplay of the figures and their gestures. The painting's dynamic composition and the use of light and shadow contribute to its expressive quality.
