This painting is still a mystery. It is an almost cinematic representation of St. Jerome, shown in different times and spaces. You see the saint three times but without explicit reference to the standard episodes. In the background you can see the stigmata received by St. Francis. This looks like a painting of a painter who is not Italian, although it is very Lombard, where there is a strong influence of Bramantino, yet at he same time it also refers to Venice.
