This large study for a kneeling Saint Jerome is a quintessential work by Nosadella, one of the most distinctive and innovative artists of Bolognese Mannerism. Trained in the workshop of Pellegrino Tibaldi (1527-1596) and strongly influenced by his master’s bold interpretation of Michelangelo’s style, Nosadella developed a highly personal and expressive drawing style, despite his only brief career, which lasted around two decades.

Here the artist carefully outlined the main figure in pen and ink over red chalk, refining it further with wash. Saint Jerome’s expression is more meticulously explored in a detailed red chalk study of his head at top right. The sheet is closely connected with another study by the artist in the Metropolitan Museum of Art (inv. 80.3.487; J. Bean and L. Turčić, 15th and 16th Century Italian Drawings in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 1982, no. 34, ill.). The two drawings, similar in size and technique, appear to depict the same kneeling model from different angles.
