"Saint Francis Receiving The Stigmata" is a renowned painting by the Italian Baroque artist Lodovico Cardi, commonly known as Cigoli. Born in 1559 in Castelvecchio di Cigoli, near San Miniato, Cigoli was a prominent figure in the late Renaissance and early Baroque periods, known for his contributions to painting, architecture, and engineering. This particular work, "Saint Francis Receiving The Stigmata," exemplifies Cigoli's mastery in capturing religious fervor and divine intervention, themes that were central to the Counter-Reformation period during which he worked.

The painting depicts the moment when Saint Francis of Assisi, the founder of the Franciscan Order, receives the stigmata, the wounds of Christ, during a vision. This event is said to have occurred in 1224 while Saint Francis was praying on Mount Alverna. In Cigoli's interpretation, the scene is rendered with dramatic intensity and emotional depth, characteristic of Baroque art's emphasis on movement, contrast, and realism.

Cigoli's use of chiaroscuro, the strong contrast between light and dark, enhances the spiritual and mystical atmosphere of the scene. The divine light that illuminates Saint Francis is depicted with a sense of heavenly radiance, symbolizing the saint's direct connection with the divine. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the rendering of Saint Francis's humble attire and the naturalistic portrayal of the surrounding landscape.

"Saint Francis Receiving The Stigmata" not only reflects Cigoli's technical prowess but also his deep engagement with the spiritual and theological currents of his time. The painting serves as a visual testament to the enduring legacy of Saint Francis and the profound impact of his mystical experiences on Christian spirituality. Today, this work continues to be celebrated for its artistic excellence and its powerful evocation of a pivotal moment in the life of one of Christianity's most venerated saints.
