"The Butcher's Shop" is a painting by the Italian Mannerist artist Bartolomeo Passerotti, created in the 1580s. This work is one of the earliest known genre paintings of a butcher's shop in European art and is celebrated for its detailed depiction of everyday life and its subtle social commentary. The painting showcases Passerotti's skill in rendering textures and surfaces, as well as his ability to capture the character and occupation of his subjects with a sense of realism that was innovative for its time.

The painting features an array of meats and poultry, displayed in a manner that emphasizes the abundance and variety of the products available in a 16th-century butcher's shop. The figures in the painting, likely the butcher and his assistants, are portrayed engaging in their trade, with a focus on the butcher who is seen interacting with a customer or possibly haggling over prices. The composition is rich with detail, including the tools of the trade and the bustling atmosphere of the marketplace.

"The Butcher's Shop" is often interpreted as a reflection of the social and economic conditions of the period, providing insight into the daily lives of ordinary people and the workings of urban commerce. Passerotti's work is also noted for its potential allegorical meanings, with some scholars suggesting that the painting may contain moral or philosophical messages hidden within the ostensibly mundane subject matter.

Housed in the Galleria Nazionale di Arte Antica in Rome, "The Butcher's Shop" is considered an important work in Passerotti's oeuvre and a significant contribution to the genre of still life and market scene paintings in the late Renaissance. Its realistic portrayal of a common trade, combined with its potential allegorical content, makes it a subject of ongoing interest and study in the field of art history.
