"The Adoration of the Shepherds" is a Baroque painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Matthias Stom, also known as Matthias Stomer, who was active during the 17th century. Stom, a Northern Caravaggisti, was heavily influenced by the Italian painter Caravaggio and his followers, which is evident in his use of chiaroscuro and dramatic lighting in this work. The painting depicts the biblical scene of the Nativity, where shepherds are shown visiting the newborn Jesus Christ in Bethlehem, as described in the Gospel of Luke.

This particular composition is characterized by its intimate portrayal of the shepherds' encounter with the Holy Family. The figures are illuminated by a soft, divine light emanating from the infant Jesus, which highlights the expressions of awe and reverence on the shepherds' faces. Stom's attention to detail and his ability to convey emotion through the interplay of light and shadow demonstrate his mastery of the tenebrist style.

"The Adoration of the Shepherds" by Stom is notable for its devotional atmosphere and its contribution to the genre of religious painting in the Baroque period. The work is a testament to the influence of Caravaggism outside of Italy and showcases Stom's skill in adapting these stylistic elements to his own artistic context. The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and is considered an important piece in the oeuvre of Matthias Stom. It remains an exemplary piece of Dutch Baroque painting, reflecting the era's deep interest in naturalism, religious themes, and the dramatic use of light and shadow.
