"Saint Augustine in Ecstasy" is a Baroque-era painting by the Spanish artist Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, created circa 1665–1670. The artwork depicts Saint Augustine of Hippo, a prominent theologian and philosopher of the early Christian Church, in a moment of divine rapture. Murillo, known for his religious works and his skillful use of chiaroscuro, captures the intensity of Augustine's mystical experience through dramatic lighting and expressive emotion.

The painting portrays Augustine in his study, surrounded by books and the implements of a scholar, as he is visited by a vision of the Holy Spirit, often symbolized by a dove. The saint's upward gaze and the ethereal light that bathes the scene suggest the presence of the divine. Murillo's composition emphasizes the contrast between the earthly realm of Augustine's scholarly pursuits and the heavenly realm of spiritual enlightenment.

"Saint Augustine in Ecstasy" is considered one of Murillo's significant contributions to religious art, reflecting the Counter-Reformation's emphasis on personal piety and the inner experience of faith. The painting is noted for its depiction of religious fervor and the artist's ability to convey the saint's emotional and spiritual transformation.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of the collection of the Chicago Art Institute, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance. Through its powerful representation of Saint Augustine, Murillo's work remains an important example of Spanish Baroque painting and its enduring impact on the visual arts.
