This image of St. Francis, dates back to a 13th-century text. Visitors to the crypt in a church in Assisi saw in line with him as St. Francis long after his death rose in his grave. Surbaran created an expressive image of the saint thanks to a strong light falling from the left and snatching his dark row and ecstatic face, leaving the right part in deep shade. This lighting effect is inspired by Caravaggio's works (Surbaran was even called the Spanish Caravaggio), but unlike the Italian's typical flame-making compositions, Surbaran endowed his painting with a stern religiosity, more characteristic of Spanish Baroque painting of the time.
