"Martyrdom of St. Lawrence" is a definitive religious-themed painting by the Italian master Tiziano Vecellio, more commonly known as Titian. Painted between 1548 and 1559, the artwork stands as a testament to Titian's profound understanding of color, composition, and drama in visual storytelling. It epitomizes the Venetian Renaissance style in its masterful use of lighting and color, and the sensory appeal of its aesthetic elements.

The painting depicts the saint's martyrdom with St. Lawrence seen writhing in his last throes on a gridiron over a fire, symbolizing the method by which he was martyred as per Christian tradition. It is set in a nocturnal landscape dominated by an impetuous sky, an innovative choice made by Titian, which has been interpreted as a sign of the saint’s divine illumination in the face of torment.

Titian's deeply personal interpretation of this religious theme creates a scene filled with a palpable sense of passion and tension. The painting's heightened emotional content aligns with the spirit of the Counter-Reformation period, while its exaggerated light and darkness effects display a mannerist influence.

Today, "Martyrdom of St. Lawrence" is housed in the Church of the Jesuits (Chiesa dei Gesuiti) in Venice, Italy. This important work not only solidifies Titian's prowess as one of the most imaginative and technically skilled painters of the High Renaissance but also offers a compelling view of the anguish and ecstasy often portrayed in religious art of the period.
