Saint Jerome and the Angel of Judgement is an oil on canvas painting by Jusepe de Ribera, signed and dated by the artist in 1626. It was produced as a display for a side chapel next to the high altar of the church of Santissima Trinità delle Monache, which also housed Ribera's Earthly Trinity.[1] After the religious order running the building was suppressed in 1813, the canvas entered the Bourbon Collection and the National Museum of Capodimonte in Naples, where it still hangs today.[1]
The painting is typical of Neapolitan Caravaggism. The figure of an angel blowing a trumpet draws on the angel in Caravaggio's own Saint Matthew and the Angel. The work shows Saint Jerome producing the Vulgate Bible, shown as a scroll on the floor in front of him. Behind Jerome is his typical attribute of a lion, whilst to his right are a skull and a book, both also attributes of the saint.
