"The Death of Sapphira" is a notable painting by the French Baroque artist Nicolas Poussin, created in 1652. This work is part of a series of paintings that depict scenes from the New Testament, specifically from the Acts of the Apostles. The painting illustrates the dramatic biblical episode of the death of Sapphira, as recounted in Acts 5:1-11, where Sapphira and her husband Ananias lie to the apostles about the proceeds of a land sale and are struck down by God as punishment for their deceit.

Poussin, known for his mastery in handling classical subjects and his emphasis on clarity of composition and harmony, approaches this religious subject with a characteristic focus on order and the human emotions involved in the narrative. The painting is a prime example of Poussin's skill in storytelling through art, as it captures the moment of Sapphira's collapse in the presence of the Apostle Peter, who confronts her about her and her husband's lie.

The work is executed in oil on canvas and is noted for its use of color, controlled brushwork, and the careful arrangement of figures to guide the viewer's eye through the unfolding drama. "The Death of Sapphira" reflects Poussin's intellectual approach to painting and his desire to evoke an emotional response from the viewer, while also conveying a moral message.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of the collection at the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance. Poussin's "The Death of Sapphira" remains an important work in the study of 17th-century French painting and provides insight into the artist's religious and philosophical convictions.
