"The Stoning of St. Stephen" is a significant early painting by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1625 when the artist was just 19 years old. This work, catalogued as Bartsch number 97, Hollstein number 125, and Bredius number 35-a, is notable for being Rembrandt's first signed and dated painting, marking the beginning of his prolific and influential career. The painting depicts the martyrdom of St. Stephen, who is recognized as Christianity's first martyr, as recounted in the Acts of the Apostles (Acts 7:54-60).

Measuring 89.5 cm by 123.6 cm, the oil on oak panel painting is a dramatic and emotive representation of the biblical event. St. Stephen is shown at the moment of his death, looking upwards towards a vision of Jesus standing at the right hand of God, as stones are hurled at him by his executioners. The work is characterized by its dynamic composition, strong chiaroscuro, and the intense expression of the figures, which would become hallmarks of Rembrandt's style.

The painting is currently housed in the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon in France. "The Stoning of St. Stephen" is particularly significant in the study of Rembrandt's early work, as it showcases the young artist's burgeoning talent and his engagement with religious themes that would recur throughout his oeuvre. The work also provides insight into the influences of Rembrandt's teacher, Pieter Lastman, and the broader context of Baroque art in the Dutch Golden Age.
