"Tempest" (Italian: La Tempesta), painted around 1505, is a renowned Renaissance masterpiece by the Italian artist Giorgione, whose full name was Giorgio Barbarelli da Castelfranco. This enigmatic oil painting is celebrated for its atmospheric portrayal and the mystery surrounding its subject matter, which has been a topic of debate among art historians for centuries. The work is one of the earliest examples of landscape painting in the Western art tradition, where the setting plays a more significant role than the figures within it.

The painting depicts a pastoral scene with a dark, stormy sky, where lightning strikes in the background. In the foreground, a young woman, possibly a gypsy or a nursing mother, sits beside a stream, while a clothed man, often thought to be a soldier, stands on the other side, holding a staff. The figures seem disconnected from the tempestuous environment and from each other, contributing to the aura of mystery.

Giorgione's "Tempest" is notable for its innovative use of color and light to create mood, as well as its departure from the religious and mythological themes that dominated the art of the period. The painting's precise meaning remains unknown, with interpretations ranging from an allegory of nature to a personal narrative with symbolic elements. It is also one of the few works attributed to Giorgione with relative certainty, as he left behind a limited oeuvre when he died at a young age.

Housed in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice, "Tempest" continues to captivate viewers and scholars alike, securing Giorgione's place as a pivotal figure in the Venetian School of painting and a forerunner in the development of landscape as a standalone genre. The painting's influence is evident in the works of later artists, including the Venetian master Titian, who was believed to have been Giorgione's pupil.
