"St. Stephen is Consecrated Deacon" is a renowned painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Vittore Carpaccio, created as part of a series dedicated to the life of Saint Stephen. This work, dating from around 1511, is one of eight canvases that were originally commissioned for the Scuola di Santo Stefano, a confraternity in Venice dedicated to the first Christian martyr. Carpaccio, known for his narrative skill and attention to detail, vividly depicts the moment when Stephen, recognized for his piety and wisdom, is ordained as one of the first seven deacons by the Apostles to assist with charitable works in the early Christian community.

The painting is characterized by its rich color palette and the elaborate costumes of the figures, reflecting the splendor of Venetian society at the time. Carpaccio's use of perspective and architectural elements helps to frame the central action, drawing the viewer's attention to the solemn ritual taking place. The artist's ability to convey the story with clarity and emotional depth is evident in the expressions and gestures of the figures, highlighting his mastery of narrative painting.

"St. Stephen is Consecrated Deacon" is held in high esteem not only for its artistic qualities but also for its historical significance as a reflection of the religious and cultural milieu of Venice during the High Renaissance. The painting is currently housed in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice, where it continues to be studied and admired for its contribution to the canon of Renaissance art.
