Saint Francis Receiving the Stigmata is a 1620 ink by Lucas Emil Vorsterman, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a man in a long robe, with his arms outstretched and his head tilted back. He's standing on a rocky outcropping, surrounded by trees and foliage. A figure with wings is hovering above him, and another man is kneeling at his feet. The scene is set in a natural, outdoor environment, with the rocky outcropping and trees creating a sense of depth and texture. The man in the robe appears to be in a state of ecstasy or rapture, with his arms outstretched and his head tilted back. The painting is an example of Baroque art, characterized by dramatic lighting and intense emotions.
