"St. Stephen Preaching" is a renowned painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Vittore Carpaccio, created circa 1514. This work is part of a series of canvases depicting the life of St. Stephen, commissioned for the Scuola di Santo Stefano, a confraternity in Venice dedicated to the Christian deacon and first martyr, Saint Stephen. Carpaccio, known for his narrative skill and attention to detail, presents a vivid tableau of St. Stephen as he addresses a diverse crowd in Jerusalem.

The painting is characterized by its rich color palette and meticulous depiction of contemporary Venetian attire, reflecting Carpaccio's interest in the accurate portrayal of fabrics and textures. The artist's use of perspective and architectural elements helps to frame the central figure of St. Stephen, who is shown gesturing passionately as he preaches to the onlookers. The composition is bustling with activity, featuring a variety of characters, each rendered with individualized expressions that suggest their varied reactions to the sermon.

"St. Stephen Preaching" is notable for its historical and religious significance, as well as its demonstration of Carpaccio's mastery in creating complex, multi-figure compositions. The painting is an important example of the Venetian School's narrative painting tradition during the High Renaissance. Today, it remains an object of study for art historians and a testament to Carpaccio's artistic legacy. The work is housed in the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart, Germany, where it continues to be admired for its artistic and cultural value.
