"Adorazione dei Pastori" (The Adoration of the Shepherds) is a Baroque painting by the Italian artist Paolo de Matteis, created in the late 17th or early 18th century. This work depicts the biblical scene of the Nativity, where shepherds are drawn to the newborn Jesus Christ in Bethlehem to pay homage, as described in the Gospel of Luke. The painting is celebrated for its dramatic use of light and shadow, a technique known as chiaroscuro, which was characteristic of the Baroque period and helped to convey the divine nature of the event.

Paolo de Matteis, born in 1662 in Piano del Cilento, near Salerno, was an accomplished painter whose works were commissioned by various patrons, including European royalty. He was known for his religious compositions, mythological scenes, and history paintings. "Adorazione dei Pastori" showcases his ability to blend naturalism with the spiritual intensity typical of the Counter-Reformation art, aiming to inspire piety and devotion in the viewer.

The painting's composition is centered around the Holy Family, with the Virgin Mary and Saint Joseph adoring the Christ Child. The shepherds' arrival adds a human element to the divine scene, reflecting the idea that Christ came for all people. De Matteis' use of color, light, and finely detailed expressions captures the awe and wonder of the moment. The artwork is a testament to the artist's mastery of the Baroque style and his capacity to convey complex theological themes through visual art.

While the exact location and provenance of "Adorazione dei Pastori" by Paolo de Matteis may not be well-documented, the painting remains an important example of the artist's oeuvre and of Baroque religious art. It continues to be studied and admired for its artistic qualities and its representation of a pivotal moment in Christian iconography.
