"Saint Onophrius" is a notable painting by the Spanish Tenebrist painter Jusepe de Ribera, also known as José de Ribera or Lo Spagnoletto. Created in 1630 during the Baroque period, this artwork exemplifies Ribera's mastery of chiaroscuro and his intense, naturalistic style. The painting depicts Saint Onophrius, a Christian hermit saint who lived a life of solitude in the desert of Thebes in Egypt and is often recognized by his scant attire of leaves and long, flowing beard.

Ribera's portrayal of Saint Onophrius is a study in contrasts, with the dramatic interplay of light and shadow emphasizing the rugged textures of the saint's skin and the landscape around him. The painting's composition draws the viewer's attention to the saint's contemplative expression, reflecting his spiritual devotion and ascetic lifestyle. Ribera's work is characterized by a strong sense of realism, and "Saint Onophrius" is no exception, with its detailed rendering of the human form and the natural environment.

The painting is part of Ribera's larger body of religious works, which often focused on saints and martyrs, showcasing his ability to convey the intensity of their faith and suffering. "Saint Onophrius" is a testament to Ribera's skill in capturing the essence of his subjects and his influence on the development of Baroque art in Spain and Italy.

Today, "Saint Onophrius" is held in high regard by art historians and is considered an important example of Ribera's contribution to 17th-century painting. It continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance, offering insight into the religious and cultural context of the period in which it was created.
