"Adoration of the Shepherds" is a piece by the Tuscan painter Fra Filippo Lippi, a Carmelitear and one of the most influential Italian artists of the 15th century known for his technique in panel painting and frescoes. The composition, painted circa 1450, is a revered work of the early Italian Renaissance.

The painting, with dimensions134 x 140 cm, is currently housed at the Museo di Capodimonte, Naples. Lippi's rendition embodies the biblical narrative of the birth and adoration of the Christ Child by shepherds featured in the Gospel of Luke 2: 8-20. The representation is unique due to Lippi's illustration of familial intimacy in a serene night setting amongst shepherds and animals, marked by gilded, haloed figures, and gothic architectural elements in the backdrop that resonate with the Florentine art influences of his era.

Lippi's innovative use of light and shadow, along with his application of meticulous details to portraiture and landscape, sets this piece apart from other depictions of the same narrative. This meticulous detailing, evident in the lifelike depiction of humans and animals, also serves as proof of his departure from the more simplified and symbolic representations of the earlier Byzantine style.

While "Adoration of the Shepherds" shares substantial advances in naturalistic rendering in the Yukushe waki tradition, it also points towards Lippi's creative process influenced by his observations of nature and human behavior, which had a profound influence on later artists, including his pupil, Sandro Botticelli. The artwork is an important example of Lippi’s capability to combine his religious devotion with the evolving stylistic trends of his time, which made him one of the pioneers of the Quattrocento period in Florence.
