''Miracle of the Slave'' (also known as ''The Miracle of St. Mark'' or ''St. Mark Saving the Slave'') is a painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Jacopo Robusti, commonly known as Tintoretto. Completed in 1548, this work is considered one of Tintoretto's masterpieces and is a prominent example of Venetian Renaissance art. It is housed in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice, Italy.

The painting measures 416 cm × 544 cm (164 in × 214 in) and depicts a dramatic scene from the life of St. Mark, the patron saint of Venice. According to the Golden Legend, a collection of hagiographies by Jacobus de Voragine, the scene illustrates the miraculous intervention of St. Mark to save a Christian slave from torture. The slave had been condemned by his master for venerating the saint's relics. As the executioner raised his hammer to shatter the slave's limbs, St. Mark descended from the heavens, breaking the instruments of torture and freeing the slave from his bonds.

Tintoretto's dynamic composition, characterized by bold use of perspective and dramatic chiaroscuro, captures the moment of divine intervention with a sense of immediacy and emotional intensity. The painting is notable for its energetic figures, swirling drapery, and the contrast between the earthly tumult and the serene, divine presence of St. Mark. The work reflects Tintoretto's innovative approach to narrative painting, combining the Venetian colorito (rich coloring) with the Florentine disegno (careful design), and is a testament to his ability to convey complex, multi-figure scenes with theatrical grandeur.

''Miracle of the Slave'' was commissioned by the Scuola Grande di San Marco, one of the prominent confraternities in Venice, as part of a series of paintings celebrating the saint. The work's vigorous style and spiritual fervor exemplify the Counter-Reformation's emphasis on dramatic and emotional religious art, designed to inspire devotion and reinforce Catholic doctrine in the face of Protestant challenges.

Tintoretto's painting remains a significant cultural artifact, not only for its artistic merits but also for its historical context and the insight it provides into the religious and civic identity of Renaissance Venice.
