"Saint Francis Receiving the Stigmata" is a notable painting by the Italian Baroque artist Guido Reni, created around 1620. This work exemplifies Reni's mastery in capturing religious fervor and divine intervention, themes that were prevalent in Baroque art. The painting depicts the moment when Saint Francis of Assisi, the founder of the Franciscan Order, receives the stigmata, the wounds of Christ, as a sign of his deep spiritual connection and devotion.

Reni's interpretation of this mystical event is characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, a technique known as chiaroscuro, which enhances the emotional intensity of the scene. The composition centers on Saint Francis, who is shown in a state of rapture, his gaze directed upwards towards the heavens. His hands and feet bear the marks of the stigmata, and his expression is one of both pain and divine ecstasy. The background is typically dark, which serves to highlight the saint's illuminated figure, creating a powerful contrast that draws the viewer's attention to the miraculous event.

The painting is also notable for its delicate rendering of textures and details, from the coarse fabric of Saint Francis's habit to the ethereal quality of the divine light. Reni's skillful use of color further enhances the spiritual atmosphere, with warm tones suggesting the presence of the divine and cooler shades conveying the earthly realm.

"Saint Francis Receiving the Stigmata" reflects the Counter-Reformation's emphasis on personal piety and the miraculous, aiming to inspire faith and devotion among its viewers. Reni's work remains a significant example of Baroque religious art, celebrated for its emotional depth, technical proficiency, and spiritual resonance. The painting is housed in various collections, with notable versions in the Vatican Museums and other prominent institutions, attesting to its enduring impact and importance in the history of art.
