"Erminia Among the Shepherds" is a notable painting by the Italian artist Sebastiano Ricci, created during the Baroque period. The work is inspired by an episode from Torquato Tasso's epic poem "Jerusalem Delivered" (Gerusalemme Liberata), which was a popular source of artistic themes during the 17th and 18th centuries. The painting depicts the moment when Erminia, the daughter of the King of Antioch, seeks refuge among shepherds after fleeing from the turmoil of the First Crusade.

Sebastiano Ricci (1659–1734) was a prominent Venetian painter known for his vibrant color palette and dynamic compositions, which contributed to the development of the Rococo style. "Erminia Among the Shepherds" is a testament to Ricci's skill in capturing the pastoral elegance and emotional resonance of the narrative. The work is characterized by its soft, flowing lines and the harmonious interplay of light and shadow, which imbue the scene with a sense of tranquility and natural beauty.

In the painting, Erminia is often portrayed wearing armor, a visual element that contrasts with the bucolic setting and underscores the tension between her noble origins and her current plight. The shepherds, depicted with a sense of rustic innocence, are shown welcoming Erminia into their pastoral world, thus providing a visual representation of the themes of hospitality and the noble savage that were prevalent in the literature and art of the time.

"Erminia Among the Shepherds" has been admired for its lyrical qualities and its ability to convey a complex narrative through visual means. The painting not only reflects the aesthetic values of the Baroque period but also offers insight into the cultural and literary interests of the era. As a work by Sebastiano Ricci, it holds a place in the canon of European art history and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
