"Studie Nach Dem Verschollenen Deckenfresko 'S. Benedetto Riconosce Rigo Sotte Le Spoglie Di Totila' In Der Abtei Monte Cassino" is a study of a now-lost ceiling fresco by the Italian Baroque painter Paolo di Matteis. The original fresco, which depicted the moment when Saint Benedict recognized King Totila of the Ostrogoths in disguise, was once a part of the artistic heritage of the Abbey of Monte Cassino, a historic monastery in Italy. Paolo di Matteis, known for his dynamic compositions and vibrant use of color, created the fresco during the height of his career, which spanned the late 17th and early 18th centuries.

The study serves as a crucial link to the lost masterpiece, providing art historians and enthusiasts with a glimpse into the composition and thematic elements that di Matteis employed. The Abbey of Monte Cassino, founded by Saint Benedict himself in the 6th century, has been destroyed and rebuilt multiple times throughout its history, with the most recent destruction occurring during the Battle of Monte Cassino in World War II. It is likely that the original fresco by di Matteis was lost during one of these periods of conflict or reconstruction.

Paolo di Matteis's work often reflected the grandeur and spiritual intensity of the Counter-Reformation period, and this study is an important representation of his approach to religious subjects. The scene captures a legendary encounter between Saint Benedict and Totila, which is celebrated for its demonstration of the saint's prophetic gifts and the humility of the king. The study not only showcases di Matteis's skill as a draftsman but also serves as a testament to the rich artistic legacy that was once housed within the walls of the Abbey of Monte Cassino.
