"St. Francis in Ecstasy" is a celebrated painting by the Italian Renaissance master Giovanni Bellini, created circa 1480. This masterpiece is renowned for its detailed depiction of St. Francis of Assisi experiencing a moment of mystical ecstasy in the wilderness. The painting is housed in the Frick Collection in New York City, having become one of the pivotal works in the museum's collection and a significant piece in the study of Renaissance art.

The artwork showcases St. Francis standing alone in a rugged landscape, moments after receiving the stigmata—the wounds of Christ. Bellini's meticulous attention to the natural world, with its diverse flora and fauna, and the serene yet expressive portrayal of St. Francis, reflects the artist's profound ability to merge the spiritual with the natural. This fusion is a hallmark of Bellini's style, which significantly influenced the Venetian Renaissance.

Measuring 124.5 cm × 141.5 cm, the painting is executed in oil on panel, a medium that was becoming increasingly popular at the time due to its versatility and durability. Bellini's use of oil paint allowed for a richness in color and a depth of detail that was unparalleled, setting a new standard for pictorial realism.

"St. Francis in Ecstasy" is not only a testament to Bellini's mastery of oil painting but also to his deep understanding of Franciscan spirituality. The painting invites contemplation, drawing viewers into a meditative engagement with the natural world and the divine. Its historical and artistic significance lies in its innovative portrayal of religious ecstasy, its contribution to the development of landscape painting, and its reflection of the humanistic values of the Renaissance.

The work has been the subject of extensive scholarly analysis, focusing on its iconography, Bellini's technique, and its place within the broader context of Renaissance art.
