# St Jerome [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [LIPPI, Filippino]() - Date: 1451-1500 - Technique: Oil on wood, 136 x 71 cm ## Commentary Vasari also mentioned that this work was commissioned by the Badia Fiorentina. It shows Saint Jerome kneeling in front of the Crucifix, with a wooded landscape in the background.
