"El Buen Pastor" (The Good Shepherd) is a notable painting by the Spanish Baroque artist Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, created circa 1660. This work is one of Murillo's religious-themed paintings, which exemplifies his soft modeling of figures, a characteristic of his mature style. The painting depicts Jesus Christ as the Good Shepherd, a common motif in Christian art that represents Christ's care and guidance for his followers, likened to a shepherd's care for his sheep.

In "El Buen Pastor," Murillo presents a youthful Christ in a pastoral landscape, tenderly cradling a lamb, which symbolizes his protective role over his flock. The figure of Christ is imbued with a sense of gentle compassion and serenity, reflecting the artist's ability to convey deep spirituality and emotional resonance through his work. The use of light and shadow, as well as the delicate rendering of the landscape and the figure, are indicative of Murillo's skill in capturing both the divine and the natural world.

The painting is an example of Murillo's expertise in the genre of religious imagery, which was highly sought after during the Counter-Reformation in Spain, where art was used as a means to inspire piety and devotion among the faithful. "El Buen Pastor" not only demonstrates Murillo's artistic talents but also serves as a visual representation of the theological concept of Christ as a caring and redemptive force.

"El Buen Pastor" by Murillo is held in high esteem for its artistic merit and its significance within the context of Spanish Baroque art. It remains an important work for the study of Murillo's oeuvre and the broader trends in religious art of the 17th century. The painting is housed in the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain, where it continues to be an object of admiration and scholarly interest.
