Saint Jerome is a 1609 painting by El Greco, now in the Frick Collection, New York.[1]

Saint Jerome
Artist	El Greco
Year	1609
Medium	oil on canvas
Dimensions	108 cm × 87 cm (43 in × 34 in)

The artist frequently returned to this subject and here shows Jerome dressed as a cardinal in a pose reminiscent of his Portrait of Cardinal Tavera and Portrait of Jerónimo de Cevallos, pointing at an open book on a table covered with a green tapestry. The deep folds in the garments point to the influence of Michelangelo and Byzantine icon painting.
