San Francisco De Asis is a notable painting by the Spanish Baroque artist Jusepe de Ribera, also known as José de Ribera or Lo Spagnoletto. Ribera, born in 1591 in Játiva, Spain, was a prominent figure in the Spanish and Italian art scenes during the 17th century. He is renowned for his dramatic use of chiaroscuro and his realistic, often unflinching depictions of religious and mythological subjects.

The painting, San Francisco De Asis, portrays Saint Francis of Assisi, the revered Italian Catholic friar and preacher who founded the Franciscan Order. Ribera's depiction of Saint Francis is characterized by its intense emotional depth and meticulous attention to detail, hallmarks of his artistic style. The saint is often shown in a moment of deep spiritual contemplation or in the throes of a mystical experience, reflecting Ribera's ability to convey profound religious fervor and human vulnerability.

Ribera's mastery of light and shadow is evident in this work, where the stark contrasts serve to highlight the saint's ascetic features and the coarse texture of his monastic habit. The background is typically dark and subdued, drawing the viewer's focus entirely on the figure of Saint Francis, whose expression and posture convey a sense of divine ecstasy and humility.

San Francisco De Asis exemplifies Ribera's skill in capturing the physical and emotional intensity of his subjects, a quality that has earned him a lasting place in the canon of Baroque art. The painting not only reflects Ribera's technical prowess but also his deep engagement with the spiritual and humanistic themes that were central to the Counter-Reformation period in which he worked.

Ribera spent much of his career in Naples, where he was influenced by the works of Caravaggio and the broader Caravaggesque movement. His works, including San Francisco De Asis, are celebrated for their raw realism and the powerful, often somber, portrayal of religious figures, making him one of the most important artists of his time.
