Adoration of the Shepherds (Ribera, Castellammare di Stabia)

Adoration of the Shepherds
Artist Jusepe de Ribera
Year c.1650
Medium oil on canvas
Location Santissima Maria Assunta and San Catello Co-Cathedral, Castellammare di Stabia

Adoration of the Shepherds is a c.1650 painting by the Spanish artist Jusepe de Ribera. It is now on display in the left transept of Santissima Maria Assunta and San Catello Co-Cathedral in Castellammare di Stabia.

It is almost identical to the artist's work on the same subject in Paris, apart from the Paris work being in portrait format and the Castellammare di Stabia work is in landscape format. Neither are securely dated and so it is unknown which is a copy of the other[1].
