"Christ Among the Doctors" is a notable painting by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, completed in 1506. This artwork is significant for its intricate detail, complex character expressions, and innovative use of color, which exemplify Dürer's mastery in painting and his deep understanding of human psychology and religious narrative. The painting depicts a scene from the Gospel of Luke (2:41–52), where the twelve-year-old Jesus, having been left behind in Jerusalem by his parents, is found in the Temple, engaging in discussion with the elders. This subject, known as "Christ among the Doctors" or "Christ Disputing with the Doctors," was a popular theme in Christian art, symbolizing Jesus' early wisdom and divine nature.

Dürer's interpretation is particularly remarkable for its portrayal of the figures' varied reactions to Jesus' discourse. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the depiction of the doctors' expressions and gestures, which range from astonishment and contemplation to skepticism, thereby capturing the moment's emotional complexity. The young Jesus is depicted at the center, calm and composed, in stark contrast to the animated and somewhat perplexed group of elders surrounding him.

Measuring 65 cm × 80 cm, the painting is executed in oil on wood panel. It was created during Dürer's second trip to Italy, a period when he was profoundly influenced by the Italian Renaissance, which is reflected in the painting's composition and use of perspective. Despite these influences, "Christ Among the Doctors" also retains elements characteristic of Northern Renaissance art, such as the meticulous attention to detail and the realistic rendering of textures and materials.

Today, "Christ Among the Doctors" is housed in the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza in Madrid, Spain. It continues to be studied and admired for its artistic excellence and its insightful portrayal of a biblical story that bridges the divine and the human. Through this masterpiece, Dürer not only showcases his technical skill and innovative approach to religious art but also offers a profound meditation on wisdom, authority, and divine revelation.
