"St. Justa and St. Rufina" is a renowned oil painting by the Spanish Baroque artist Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, created circa 1665-1666. This masterpiece is part of a series of works that Murillo painted for the Cathedral of Seville, which houses the painting to this day. The artwork depicts the figures of Saints Justa and Rufina, who are venerated as martyrs and patron saints of Seville. According to Christian tradition, they were sisters who lived in the 3rd century in Seville and were known for their devout Christian faith and their martyrdom during the persecution of Christians under the Roman Empire.

Murillo's painting captures the spiritual essence and the serene grace of the two saints, set against a backdrop that reflects the celestial realm. The sisters are portrayed holding pottery, which symbolizes their occupation as potters and their martyrdom, as legend has it that they refused to sell their wares for use in pagan festivals, leading to their arrest and execution. The composition of the painting, with its soft, diffused light and the delicate rendering of the figures, is characteristic of Murillo's mature style, which combines realism with a profound sense of spirituality.

"St. Justa and St. Rufina" is celebrated for its exquisite execution and its emotional depth, embodying the ideals of the Counter-Reformation, which sought to reaffirm the Catholic faith through art that was both accessible and uplifting. The painting not only serves as a religious icon but also as a cultural symbol of Seville, reflecting the city's rich history and its deep-rooted Christian traditions. Through this work, Murillo has contributed significantly to the Spanish Baroque movement, leaving a lasting legacy that continues to inspire and captivate audiences around the world.
