"Saint Francis of Assisi in Ecstasy" (1595) is a painting by the Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, housed in the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art in Hartford, Connecticut. The artwork is one of Caravaggio's early religious-themed paintings and depicts Saint Francis of Assisi at the moment of receiving the stigmata, the wounds resembling those of Christ's crucifixion.

The painting is renowned for its dramatic realism and use of chiaroscuro, a technique Caravaggio pioneered, which employs strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and depth. "Saint Francis of Assisi in Ecstasy" captures the intensity of the saint's mystical experience with a naturalism that was revolutionary at the time, diverging from the idealized representations common in the art of the High Renaissance.

In the composition, Saint Francis is shown in a humble posture, with his eyes closed and arms open, surrendering to the divine experience. An angel is depicted guiding his hands, and the background is shrouded in darkness, focusing the viewer's attention on the illuminated figures. The painting's emotional power and the lifelike presence of the saint exemplify Caravaggio's skill in portraying human emotion and spirituality.

The work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its influence on the development of Baroque painting. Caravaggio's innovative approach to depicting religious subjects with intense emotionality and realism had a profound impact on his contemporaries and the generations of artists that followed. "Saint Francis of Assisi in Ecstasy" remains a testament to Caravaggio's mastery of light, composition, and the human form, and it continues to be studied and admired for its contribution to the canon of Western art.
