Black and white engraving of St. Jerome sitting at a desk in a small room. St. Jerome wears glasses and a cap on his head and a cape over his shoulder; his right arm rests on a skull on the desk in front of him. The desk has a drawer and a cross on top of it. To St. Jerome's left is a lion lying on the floor. The room has a vaulted ceiling and a curtained window on the left. There are shelves behind St. Jerome filled with containers, and to his right is another shelf with books and a clock. A chest with a book on top sits to the right. The room is dimly lit. The image depicts a scene from the life of a Christian saint.
