J. Howarth, The Steenwyck Family as Masters of Perspective, Turnhout 2009, pp. 239-40, cat. II.D22, reproduced p. 51ꦦ8 (as att🉐ributed to Steenwijck the Younger).

Howarth lists 24 versions of this subject by or attributed to Steenwijck the Younger. The th༺eme allowed the master of perspective to depict a contemporary interior with a religious subject, and the interiors range from palaces to smaller homes. Here, a chapel is seen through the door at back, and St. Jerome's room includes a bed and fireplace, with Jerome's lion relaxing on the floor. The pattern ♏of tiling on the floor is unusual in Steenwijck's work.
