"The Temptation of St. Anthony" is an oil painting by French artist Aimé Morot, created in 1887. This work is one of the numerous artistic interpretations of the story of St. Anthony the Great, a Christian monk from Egypt who lived in the 3rd and 4th centuries and is said to have faced a series of supernatural temptations during his life. Morot's painting is particularly noted for its dramatic and vivid portrayal of these temptations, which are often depicted as coming in the form of demons and other fantastical creatures.

In Morot's rendition, St. Anthony is typically shown as an anchorite tormented by monstrous apparitions, which represent the inner turmoil and the spiritual battles that the saint faced while in the solitude of the desert. The painting stands out for its meticulous detail, dynamic composition, and the emotional intensity captured in the figure of St. Anthony. Morot's use of chiaroscuro and his ability to render textures enhance the dramatic effect of the scene, making the viewer almost feel the saint's struggle against the forces of evil.

The work reflects the 19th-century fascination with religious and mystical themes, as well as the period's interest in exploring the psychological aspects of such experiences. "The Temptation of St. Anthony" by Aimé Morot is considered an important work within the Symbolist movement, which sought to express the ineffable and the spiritual through evocative and often enigmatic imagery. The painting is also an example of the fin-de-siècle artists' preoccupation with the themes of temptation, sin, and redemption.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of the collection of the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
