"The Temptation of Saint Anthony" is an oil painting by Netherland artist Jan Mandijn, circa mid-16th century. This artwork is a representation of the recurring theme in Christian art of Saint Anthony Abbot's temptation by demons in the Egyptian desert, a narrative drawn from "The Life of Saint Anthony Abbot," written by Athanasius of Alexandria in the 4th century. In Mandijn's vivid and detailed rendition, Saint Anthony is portrayed amidst an array of imaginative and disturbing demonic entities. The artwork is distinguished by its intense depictions of these temptations, illustrating both the horror and resilience associated with the long-lived Christian narrative.

Mandijn, who belonged to the Antwerp School, was influenced by Hieronymus Bosch and is known for his large-scale landscapes populated by small figures and featuring surreal, phantasmagoric events. In "The Temptation of Saint Anthony," Mandijn's Bosch-inspired elements are evident in the complex and highly detailed rendition of supernatural beings and chaotic situations surrounding the main figure, Saint Anthony.

The painting reflects the common 16th-century theme of moral and religious dilemmas, featuring symbolism and characters designed to engage viewers in contemplation of such themes. "The Temptation of Saint Anthony" by Jan Mandijn is now preserved and displayed in the Museo del Prado, Madrid, contributing to the international audience's understanding and appreciation of Netherlandish Renaissance art and its influence on the wider European art culture.
