"Le Repentir de Saint Pierre" (The Repentance of Saint Peter) is a notable work by the Spanish Tenebrist painter Jusepe de Ribera, also known as José de Ribera or Lo Spagnoletto. Created in the 17th century, this painting is a prime example of Ribera's mastery in depicting religious subjects with a dramatic use of light and shadow, a characteristic of the Tenebrist style that emerged during the Baroque period.

The painting portrays Saint Peter in a moment of profound remorse following his denial of Jesus Christ, as described in the New Testament. Ribera's depiction is emotionally charged, capturing the anguish and sorrow of the apostle. The artist's focus on the psychological intensity of the scene is evident in Saint Peter's expressive face and the gesture of his hands, which convey a sense of desperation and penitence.

Ribera's work is distinguished by his realistic approach to the human figure and his skillful handling of chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and dark, to create a three-dimensional effect and to guide the viewer's attention to the central figure. "Le Repentir de Saint Pierre" exemplifies these techniques, with the interplay of light and shadow serving to highlight the emotional depth of the subject.

The painting is part of Ribera's broader oeuvre, which includes numerous religious and mythological scenes, as well as portraits and genre works. Ribera, who spent much of his career in Naples, was a significant influence on the development of Baroque painting in Italy and Spain. "Le Repentir de Saint Pierre" remains an important work for its artistic merit and its contribution to the understanding of Baroque religious iconography.
