Description:

This panel painting depicts Saint Jerome, identifiable by his cardinal's hat resting on the ground behind him and his monastic attire, attending to a lion. The saint, with a long white beard and tonsured head, is seated and appears to be examining or removing a thorn from the lion's paw. The lion looks up at him with a seemingly grateful or trusting expression. The background features a stylized landscape with rocky formations, trees, and two small buildings, one with a prominent pointed roof and the other more rustic. A halo of gold leaf encircles Saint Jerome's head, signifying his sainthood. The painting has a somewhat flattened perspective and a decorative use of gold, particularly in the halo and parts of the landscape, characteristic of the International Gothic style prevalent during the artist's time.
