About the Artwork
This is an unfinished painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Leonardo Da Vinci and it's called Saint Jerome in the Wilderness (circa 1480). The composition of the painting has been drafted in monochrome onto the primed wooden panel. At an unknown date after Leonardo's death, the panel was cut into five pieces before eventually being restored into its original form (minus a very small triangle).
The oil draft depicts Saint Jerome in advanced age during his retreat to the Syrian desert, where he lived the life of a hermit. The saint kneels in a rocky landscape, gazing toward a crucifix which can be discerned faintly sketched in at the extreme right of the painting. At his feet is the lion which became a loyal companion after he extracted a thorn from its paw. The lion, the stone and cardinal's hat are traditional attributes of the saint. On the left side is a distant landscape of a lake surrounded by mountains and mist. The right side is a faintly sketched church, seen through the opening in the rocks.
