"Judith" is a notable painting created by the German artist August Riedel in 1840. Riedel, a prominent figure in the 19th-century German art scene, was known for his masterful technique and his ability to convey deep emotion and narrative through his works. This particular painting is a striking representation of the biblical figure Judith, a heroine who is celebrated for her bravery and cunning in the apocryphal Book of Judith.

The painting captures the moment after Judith has beheaded the Assyrian general Holofernes, a deed she undertook to save her city, Bethulia, from siege. Riedel's portrayal of Judith is both powerful and serene, emphasizing her strength and determination. The composition of the painting is meticulously crafted, with Judith positioned centrally, holding the sword in one hand and the head of Holofernes in the other. Her expression is calm and resolute, reflecting her inner fortitude and the gravity of her actions.

Riedel's use of light and shadow in "Judith" enhances the dramatic effect of the scene. The illumination on Judith's face and body contrasts sharply with the darker background, drawing the viewer's attention to her and the gruesome trophy she holds. The detailed rendering of textures, from the softness of Judith's garments to the roughness of Holofernes' severed head, showcases Riedel's technical prowess.

"Judith" is a testament to Riedel's skill in combining classical techniques with Romantic sensibilities. The painting not only highlights the artist's ability to depict historical and biblical themes but also serves as a reflection of the 19th-century fascination with strong, complex female figures. Today, "Judith" remains an important work in the study of German Romantic art and continues to be admired for its artistic and historical significance.
