"Saint Anthony of Padua Preaching to the Fishes" is a notable 18th-century oil painting by the Venetian artist Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo, who was a prominent figure in the Rococo movement and the son of the famous painter Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. This work is part of a series of paintings that depict the life of Saint Anthony of Padua, a Franciscan friar known for his powerful preaching and his patronage of lost items.

The painting illustrates a well-known legend of Saint Anthony, who, frustrated by the indifference of the people of Rimini to his sermons, turned to the sea and began to preach to the fishes. According to the tale, the fish gathered in masses to listen, their heads above the water, which in turn shamed the people into listening to Anthony's words. Tiepolo's rendition captures this miraculous moment with a blend of religious reverence and a touch of the theatricality that characterizes much of his work.

In Tiepolo's composition, Saint Anthony is depicted standing on the shore or a boat, gesturing towards the attentive aquatic congregation with a sense of divine inspiration. The fishes are often portrayed in a variety of sizes and species, showcasing Tiepolo's attention to detail and his ability to infuse a sense of life and character into even the most unusual subjects. The painting is noted for its dynamic use of color, light, and composition, which serve to emphasize the spiritual significance of the event and the saint's connection to nature and the divine.

As with many of Tiepolo's works, "Saint Anthony of Padua Preaching to the Fishes" reflects the artist's mastery of narrative painting and his ability to convey complex religious themes through engaging and accessible imagery. The painting remains an important example of Tiepolo's artistic legacy and a valuable piece of religious art that continues to be studied and admired for its craftsmanship and its evocative portrayal of a beloved saint's legend.
