"St. Stephen and St. Blaise" is a notable panel from the Altarpiece of Pierre Rup, a work of religious art attributed to an anonymous artist and dated circa 1450. This altarpiece is a significant example of 15th-century European religious art, reflecting the devotional practices and artistic styles of the period. The panel depicts two Christian saints, St. Stephen, the first Christian martyr, and St. Blaise, known for his healing miracles and patronage of throat illnesses.

St. Stephen is typically represented holding the stones of his martyrdom and wearing the dalmatic of a deacon, while St. Blaise is often depicted with the instruments of his martyrdom, such as combs or iron carding tools, and sometimes with two crossed candles, which are used in the blessing of throats on his feast day. The Altarpiece of Pierre Rup would have served both a didactic function, teaching the faithful about the lives and sacrifices of these saints, and a devotional purpose, providing a visual focus for prayer and contemplation.

The panel is characterized by the Gothic style of the era, with elongated figures, meticulous attention to detail, and the use of gold leaf to create a sense of divinity and light. The use of rich colors and intricate patterns would have been designed to capture the attention of worshippers and convey the sanctity of the depicted figures.

The Altarpiece of Pierre Rup, including the "St. Stephen and St. Blaise" panel, is an important artifact for the study of art history and religious iconography.
