"Saint John of God" is a notable oil painting by the Spanish Baroque artist Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, created in the 17th century. This artwork is a representation of John of God, the Portuguese-born founder of the Brothers Hospitallers, who dedicated his life to the care and comfort of the sick and the poor. Murillo, renowned for his religious works and his tender, realistic depictions of both the divine and the human, captures the compassionate essence of the saint in this piece.

The painting portrays Saint John of God in a moment of divine inspiration or ecstasy, a common theme in Baroque religious art, which often sought to evoke an emotional response from the viewer. The saint is typically depicted with attributes that identify his charitable mission, such as a pomegranate, a symbol of the Brothers Hospitallers, and sometimes with a crucifix or a crown of thorns, reflecting his devotion to Christ's suffering.

Murillo's mastery of chiaroscuro and his ability to convey the textures of different materials enhance the spiritual and emotional intensity of the painting. The use of light not only highlights the figure of the saint but also serves to create a sense of depth and volume, drawing the viewer's attention to the central figure's expression of rapture.

"Saint John of God" is considered an important work within Murillo's oeuvre, exemplifying his skill in combining realism with spirituality. The painting's exact location and provenance may vary, as Murillo's works are held in numerous collections around the world, including museums and religious institutions. As with many of Murillo's paintings, "Saint John of God" reflects the Counter-Reformation's emphasis on personal piety and the veneration of saints, making it a valuable piece for both its artistic merit and its cultural and historical significance.
