"The Sermon of St Stephen" is a fresco by the Early Renaissance Italian painter Fra Angelico, also known as Guido di Pietro. This work is part of a series of frescoes painted by Fra Angelico in the 1440s for the Convent of San Marco in Florence, Italy. The fresco depicts St. Stephen, the first Christian martyr, delivering a sermon, presumably before his accusation and subsequent stoning to death.

Fra Angelico, renowned for his devout spirituality and the serene and holy figures he painted, was a Dominican friar himself, which gave him a deep connection to the religious themes he often portrayed. "The Sermon of St Stephen" reflects Fra Angelico's mastery in combining simplicity with profound expression, capturing the saint's divine inspiration and the rapt attention of his audience. The fresco is characterized by its harmonious color palette and the use of light, which not only highlights the central figure of St. Stephen but also contributes to the narrative and emotional impact of the scene.

The work is significant in art history for its representation of theological themes and its role in the development of Renaissance art, particularly in the use of perspective and the depiction of spatial depth. "The Sermon of St Stephen" exemplifies Fra Angelico's contribution to the Florentine school of painting and his influence on subsequent generations of artists. The fresco remains an important piece of the extensive body of religious art created during the Renaissance and is a testament to Fra Angelico's reputation as a "saintly" painter and his beatification by the Catholic Church.
