Painting Description
Judith with the Head of Holofernes is a painting by the German artist Adam Elsheimer, completed in 1606 during the Baroque period, which is known for its dramatic use of color and light. The painting depicts the biblical story of Judith, a widow from the city of Bethulia, who saves her people by seducing and subsequently beheading the Assyrian general Holofernes. This theme has been a popular subject in the history of art, symbolizing the power of virtue and the triumph of the weak over the strong.
Elsheimer's interpretation of Judith with the Head of Holofernes is notable for its intricate detail and the use of chiaroscuro, a technique that contrasts light and shadow to achieve a sense of volume in modeling three-dimensional objects and figures. The painting measures 34 x 25 cm and is executed in oil on copper, a medium known for its ability to render exquisite detail and luminous qualities.
This work is particularly significant in Elsheimer’s oeuvre because it showcases his skill in handling complex narratives within a compact format, a hallmark of his style. The painting is housed in the Städel Museum, Frankfurt, Germany, and remains an important example of Baroque painting and of Elsheimer's artistic legacy.
