"Charity of St. Thomas of Villanova" is a notable oil painting by the Spanish Baroque artist Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, created circa 1670. This work is one of several that depict the charitable acts of St. Thomas of Villanova, a 16th-century Spanish archbishop renowned for his compassion and generosity towards the poor. Murillo, celebrated for his religious works and genre scenes, often infused his paintings with a sense of warmth and humanity, qualities that are evident in this piece.

The painting illustrates a moment of benevolence, with St. Thomas of Villanova, dressed in archbishop's robes, extending alms to a group of destitute individuals. The composition is characterized by its tender portrayal of the figures and the use of light to highlight the saint's benevolent action, a hallmark of Murillo's mature style. The saint's expression exudes kindness, while the recipients of his charity are depicted with a dignified realism that avoids sentimentalism.

"Charity of St. Thomas of Villanova" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its reflection of the Counter-Reformation ideals that emphasized charitable works as a means of personal and communal salvation. The painting serves as a visual representation of the Catholic Church's response to the Protestant Reformation, promoting the importance of good deeds and the care of the poor.

The artwork is held in high esteem for its technical execution, emotional resonance, and its role in the context of 17th-century Spanish art. It remains an important example of Murillo's ability to convey complex theological themes through accessible and compassionate imagery, and it continues to be studied for its contribution to the narrative of European art history.
