## Commentary

The great number of objects and their detailed contours, the still life-like motifs recall the Flemish painting. The Saint is in a &#39;scriptorium&#39; \(a codex workshop\) full with monks whose white and brown clothes reveal that they belong to a branch of the Hieronymite monks, the Lupian hermits.
