"St. Francis in Meditation" is a notable oil painting created in 1639 by the Spanish Baroque painter Francisco de Zurbarán. This work is one of several representations of St. Francis of Assisi by Zurbarán, who was known for his religious compositions and their austere, yet expressive, portrayal of monastic life. The painting depicts St. Francis in a moment of deep contemplation, embodying the ascetic spirituality and penitential piety characteristic of the Counter-Reformation period.

In "St. Francis in Meditation," the saint is shown with the traditional attributes of the Franciscan order: the dark robe, the knotted cord, and the stigmata, which are the wounds of Christ that St. Francis was said to have received miraculously. The composition is marked by a strong chiaroscuro, with the figure of St. Francis emerging from the dark background, illuminated by a soft, directional light that highlights the textures of his robe and the intensity of his devout expression.

Zurbarán's mastery in rendering the fabric and the human form is evident in this painting, as is his ability to convey a sense of spiritual depth and introspection. The painting invites the viewer to engage in a moment of reflection, mirroring the meditative state of St. Francis. "St. Francis in Meditation" is often praised for its quiet power and the sense of inner peace it imparts, making it a significant example of Zurbarán's religious oeuvre and a masterpiece of Spanish Baroque art.

The painting is held in high esteem by art historians and is frequently studied for its stylistic qualities and its representation of 17th-century Spanish spirituality. It remains an important work for understanding the cultural and religious context of the time, as well as the artistic legacy of Francisco de Zurbarán.
