The Penitent Saint Jerome with a Young Monk – Fra Filippo Lippi | Museum-Quality Reproduction

Contemplate the solitude, struggle, and sanctity of Saint Jerome with this powerful hand-painted reproduction of The Penitent Saint Jerome with a Young Monk by Fra Filippo Lippi. Painted in the mid-15th century, this rare devotional panel reveals a quieter, more introspective side of Lippi’s religious work.

Set within a darkened, rugged wilderness, the painting shows Saint Jerome deep in penitence, striking his chest beside a skull—a symbol of mortality and spiritual reflection. A young monk, likely a novice under his spiritual guidance, offers him bread, highlighting themes of humility, mentorship, and ascetic devotion. At the foot of the scene sits the lion, Jerome’s legendary companion, signifying loyalty and divine taming of nature.

Rendered in Lippi’s dramatic chiaroscuro and earthy tones, the piece is a meditation on inner discipline, human mortality, and the path of spiritual mentorship—perfect for sacred spaces or those drawn to contemplative Renaissance art.
