About Artwork: (About 1610) "A saint in a red dalmatic (a long, wide-sleeved tunic) collapses to the ground as a crowd throw stones at him. This is the death of Saint Stephen, the first Christian martyr. Stephen was a deacon in the early Church and, according to the Acts of the Apostles, enraged the authorities in Jerusalem by his preaching. They accused him of blasphemy and an angry crowd dragged him out of the city and stoned him to death. The composition is inspired by paintings of the subject by Domenichino and Annibale Carracci. The artist may be Antonio Carracci, son of Agostino and nephew of Annibale. There are not many paintings securely attributed to him but The Flood (Louvre, Paris), although much larger in scale, is similar in style, especially in the background figures. If it is indeed by Antonio, it was probably painted around 1610." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
