"The Stoning of Saint Stephen" is a painting by the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1625. This early work of Rembrandt is notable for its dramatic intensity and masterful use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs stark contrasts between light and dark to create a sense of volume and three-dimensionality. The painting depicts the martyrdom of Saint Stephen, the first Christian martyr, as described in the Acts of the Apostles in the New Testament. According to the biblical account, Stephen was stoned to death by an enraged mob for his outspoken faith in Jesus Christ.

In this composition, Rembrandt captures the chaotic and violent nature of the scene with remarkable emotional depth. The central figure of Saint Stephen is shown kneeling, with his hands clasped in prayer, as stones are hurled at him from all directions. His face is illuminated by a divine light, symbolizing his unwavering faith and the presence of God even in his final moments. Surrounding him are the figures of his persecutors, whose expressions range from anger to indifference, highlighting the varied human responses to acts of violence and martyrdom.

Rembrandt's use of light and shadow not only enhances the dramatic effect of the scene but also serves to draw the viewer's attention to the spiritual significance of Stephen's sacrifice. The painting is an early example of Rembrandt's ability to convey complex human emotions and spiritual themes through his art. "The Stoning of Saint Stephen" is housed in the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Lyon, France, and remains a significant work in the study of Rembrandt's artistic development and his exploration of religious subjects.
