"Cimone e Pero" is a notable painting by the Italian Baroque artist Andrea Vaccaro, who was active during the 17th century in Naples. The artwork is a depiction of the classical story of Roman charity ("Caritas Romana"), which tells the tale of Pero, a woman who secretly breastfeeds her father, Cimon, while he is imprisoned and sentenced to death by starvation. Vaccaro's interpretation of this poignant narrative is a testament to his ability to capture emotional depth and human compassion through his use of chiaroscuro and warm color palette, hallmarks of the Baroque period.

The painting is characterized by its dramatic lighting and the tender interaction between the figures, with Pero positioned as a symbol of filial piety and selfless love. Vaccaro's mastery in rendering the textures of skin and fabric, as well as the psychological intensity of the scene, is evident in this work. "Cimone e Pero" not only exemplifies the thematic focus on virtue and morality that was prevalent in Baroque art but also showcases Vaccaro's skill in creating compositions that resonate with viewers on an emotional level.

While the exact date of creation is not definitively known, "Cimone e Pero" is often dated to the mid-17th century, a period during which Vaccaro was particularly influenced by the works of Caravaggio and his followers. The painting is significant within Vaccaro's oeuvre as it reflects the transition in Neapolitan painting from the naturalism of Caravaggio to a more classical and idealized approach. "Cimone e Pero" remains an important example of Vaccaro's artistic legacy and contributes to the understanding of Baroque art in Naples.
