Saints Proculus and Nicea is a 1636-1637 painting by Artemisia Gentileschi of Proculus and Nicea. Along with Adoration of the Magi and Saint Januarius in the Amphitheatre at Pozzuoli, it was commissioned by Martín de León Cárdenas for the choir of Pozzuoli Cathedral, of which he was bishop. After around fifty years' restoration in the Museo di Capodimonte, the painting was returned to its original spot in May 2014 when the Cathedral reopened for worship.
