"Crkvica Sv. Stjepana" (English: "The Little Church of St. Stephen") is a notable painting by Mato Celestin Medović, one of the most prominent Croatian painters at the turn of the 20th century. Medović, originally a priest, turned to painting and became a leading figure in Croatian modern art, particularly known for his contributions to landscape and genre painting.

The painting "Crkvica Sv. Stjepana" is a fine example of Medović's mature style, which often combined elements of realism with a distinctive use of light and color that showed the influence of Impressionism. Created during Medović's most productive period, the work depicts the small church of St. Stephen, a subject that reflects the artist's lifelong interest in the heritage and scenery of his native Dalmatia.

In this piece, Medović captures the serene atmosphere of the Mediterranean landscape, with the church edifice as the central focal point. The use of light and shadow, as well as the vibrant yet harmonious color palette, are characteristic of Medović's technique, which sought to convey the luminosity and warmth of the Dalmatian coast.

"Crkvica Sv. Stjepana" is not only significant for its aesthetic qualities but also as a cultural artifact that offers insight into the regional identity of Dalmatia and the broader historical context of Croatian art. The painting is a testament to Medović's skill in rendering the interplay of natural light and architectural forms, and it remains an important work within the canon of Croatian art history.

The painting is held in high regard by art historians and critics and is considered an important part of Croatia's national heritage. It is frequently studied for its stylistic elements and as an example of the regionalist tendencies in Medović's work. "Crkvica Sv. Stjepana" continues to be exhibited in art galleries and museums, where it is appreciated by both the scholarly community and the general public for its artistic and historical significance.
