"Saint Francis of Assisi and the Angel with the Water Bottle" is a notable painting by the Spanish Baroque artist Jusepe de Ribera, also known as José de Ribera or Lo Spagnoletto. Created in the 17th century, this work exemplifies Ribera's mastery in depicting religious figures with a dramatic and naturalistic style, a characteristic of the Baroque period. The painting portrays Saint Francis of Assisi, the revered Catholic saint known for his piety and humility, alongside an angel who is offering him a water bottle.

Ribera, who spent most of his career in Italy, was heavily influenced by the naturalism of Caravaggio and the tenebrism of the Neapolitan school. In "Saint Francis of Assisi and the Angel with the Water Bottle," Ribera captures the moment of divine intervention with intense emotion and a stark contrast of light and shadow, emphasizing the spiritual experience of the saint. The angel, a messenger of God, is depicted with ethereal grace, while Saint Francis is rendered with a sense of devout contemplation and asceticism.

The painting is significant for its artistic qualities as well as its religious subject matter, reflecting the Counter-Reformation's emphasis on personal piety and the veneration of saints. Ribera's work is celebrated for its ability to convey the inner life of its subjects through powerful chiaroscuro and expressive realism. "Saint Francis of Assisi and the Angel with the Water Bottle" remains an important example of Ribera's oeuvre and a testament to the enduring influence of Baroque art on the portrayal of religious themes.
