The Temptation of Saint Jerome (c. 1521-1525) by Savoldo

Originally produced for a private 'studiolo', it was a homage to similar works by Hieronymus Bosch, some of which were in cardinal Domenico Grimani's collection in Venice. The saint's vision to the right is also heavily influenced by the figures of Aeneas and Anchises in Marcantonio Raimondi's print of Raphael's The Fire in the Borgo, while the glow of the sunset refers to German Danube school painters.[2]
