The "Disputation of St Stephen" is a renowned painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Vittore Carpaccio, completed in 1514. This work is part of a series of canvases depicting the life and martyrdom of Saint Stephen, commissioned for the Scuola di Santo Stefano, a confraternity in Venice dedicated to the saint. The painting is currently housed in the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart, in Germany.

In this vivid narrative scene, Carpaccio illustrates the moment from the Acts of the Apostles (Acts 6:8-15) when Saint Stephen, the first Christian martyr, defends his faith before the Sanhedrin, the Jewish council. The artist's portrayal of the disputation shows Stephen calmly addressing his accusers, who are depicted with a range of emotional responses, from attentiveness to anger. Carpaccio's work is notable for its meticulous attention to detail, both in the architectural setting, which reflects the artist's interest in the accurate depiction of space and perspective, and in the varied expressions and gestures of the figures, which convey the dramatic tension of the scene.

The "Disputation of St Stephen" is a prime example of Carpaccio's mature style, characterized by clear, bright colors and a harmonious composition that combines elements of the Venetian tradition with influences from Northern European art. The painting's historical and religious significance, along with its artistic merits, make it an important work in the study of Venetian Renaissance painting and in the broader context of the history of art.
