Erminia tra i Pastori, also known as Erminia e Tancredi, is a notable Baroque painting by the Italian artist Paolo di Matteis. Created in the early 18th century, this work exemplifies the dramatic intensity and emotional depth characteristic of the Baroque period. Paolo di Matteis, born in 1662 in Cilento, Italy, was a prolific painter whose works were highly regarded for their dynamic compositions and vibrant use of color. He was a student of Luca Giordano, another prominent Baroque artist, and his influence is evident in di Matteis's masterful handling of light and shadow.

The painting depicts a scene from Torquato Tasso's epic poem "Gerusalemme Liberata" (Jerusalem Delivered), which narrates the story of the First Crusade. In this particular scene, Erminia, a Saracen princess, is shown among shepherds after fleeing from the battlefield where her beloved Tancredi, a Christian knight, is fighting. The composition captures a moment of respite and pastoral tranquility, contrasting with the turmoil and conflict of the surrounding narrative. Erminia is portrayed with a sense of grace and serenity, her delicate features and flowing garments rendered with exquisite detail.

Di Matteis's use of chiaroscuro enhances the emotional impact of the scene, with soft, diffused light illuminating Erminia and the shepherds, creating a sense of intimacy and calm. The pastoral setting, with its lush landscape and gentle animals, further emphasizes the theme of peace and refuge. The artist's skillful brushwork and rich color palette bring the characters to life, making the viewer feel a part of this poignant moment.

Erminia tra i Pastori is a testament to Paolo di Matteis's ability to convey complex emotions and narratives through his art. It remains an important work in the study of Baroque painting, illustrating the period's fascination with dramatic storytelling and the interplay of light and shadow.
