"Sant'Antonio da Padova predica ai pesci" (Saint Anthony of Padua Preaching to the Fish) is a fresco by the Italian Mannerist painter Taddeo Zuccari. Created in the 16th century, this work is part of a series of frescoes depicting the life of Saint Anthony of Padua, located in the Oratorio di San Giovanni Decollato in Rome. Zuccari, who was active during the late Renaissance period, is known for his dynamic compositions and was a prominent artist in Rome, contributing to the decoration of several significant buildings, including the Vatican.

The fresco illustrates a well-known episode from the life of Saint Anthony, a Franciscan friar famed for his eloquent sermons and his patronage of lost items. According to legend, when the people of Rimini turned away from his preaching, Saint Anthony turned to the sea and began to speak. Miraculously, the fish raised their heads above the water to listen to him, a testament to nature's responsiveness to divine truth when humans are unheeding.

In Zuccari's depiction, the saint is shown standing on the shore or a promontory, gesturing towards the attentive fish who are portrayed with their heads above the water's surface. The fresco is notable for its vivid portrayal of the saint's fervor and the attentive congregation of fish, which serves as a metaphor for spiritual awakening and the universal call to faith.

Zuccari's work is characterized by its dramatic expression and the use of vibrant colors, which were typical of the Mannerist style that sought to go beyond the balanced compositions and harmonious proportions of the High Renaissance. "Sant'Antonio da Padova predica ai pesci" is an example of Zuccari's skill in conveying narrative and emotion through fresco, a medium that played a crucial role in the decoration of religious spaces during the Renaissance.

The fresco is an important piece within Zuccari's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of Mannerist art in the context of religious narratives. It remains an object of study for art historians interested in the period and is a testament to the enduring legacy of Saint Anthony's story in Christian iconography.
