"The Angel of Mercy" is a notable work of art by the English painter Joseph Highmore (1692–1780). Painted in 1746, the artwork is a significant example of Highmore's transition from portraiture to moral and sentimental subjects, influenced by the burgeoning literary culture of the 18th century. The painting is a visual representation of the concept of mercy, personified by an angelic figure who intervenes to prevent a crime.

The artwork is a part of a series of twelve paintings, known as the "Parable of the Prodigal Son," which were inspired by the biblical story of the same name. "The Angel of Mercy" stands out in this series as it deviates from the biblical narrative to introduce an allegorical figure. The painting is a reflection of Highmore's engagement with contemporary social issues, particularly the plight of women in society.

The painting is currently housed in the Tate Britain, London. Its acquisition by the Tate in 1981 marked a significant recognition of Highmore's contribution to British art history. Over the years, "The Angel of Mercy" has been the subject of numerous scholarly studies and exhibitions, reflecting its enduring relevance and appeal.
