"The Stoning of Saint Stephen" is a significant religious painting by the Italian artist Giovanni Antonio Pellegrini (1675–1741). This artwork depicts the martyrdom of Saint Stephen, who is recognized as the first Christian martyr, or protomartyr, according to the Acts of the Apostles in the New Testament. Pellegrini, a prominent painter of the Venetian school, was known for his grand style and was a key figure in spreading the Venetian style across Europe in the late 17th and early 18th centuries.

The painting captures the moment of Saint Stephen's execution by stoning, as recounted in Acts 7:54-60. Saint Stephen, filled with the Holy Spirit, gazes upward towards a vision of Jesus standing at the right hand of God, as his executioners carry out their grim task. Pellegrini's composition is dramatic and filled with movement, reflecting the tumultuous event and the intensity of the scene. The artist's use of color and light emphasizes the contrast between the saint's divine revelation and the brutality of the crowd.

While the exact date of creation for "The Stoning of Saint Stephen" is not definitively known, it is believed to have been painted during Pellegrini's mature period, which was characterized by a more dynamic and expressive approach to his subjects. The painting is an example of the Baroque style, with its emotional intensity and use of chiaroscuro to enhance the dramatic effect.

"The Stoning of Saint Stephen" by Giovanni Antonio Pellegrini is an important work that exemplifies the artist's skill in conveying narrative and emotion through his art. It serves not only as a piece of religious devotion but also as a testament to the artistic innovations of the Baroque period and the Venetian school's influence on European art. The current location of the painting and its provenance are details that would provide further context to the work's historical and cultural significance.
