The Flagellation (le Blanc 7; Bartsch Xvi, 10) is a notable engraving by the Italian Renaissance artist Battista Franco, also known as Battista Franco Veneziano. This work is a compelling representation of the biblical scene of the Flagellation of Christ, a subject that has been a profound source of inspiration for many artists throughout history. Battista Franco, who was active during the 16th century, is recognized for his contributions to the Mannerist style, which is characterized by its artificial elegance and sophisticated compositions.

The engraving is catalogued in the comprehensive references of 19th-century art historians such as le Blanc and Bartsch, indicating its significance within the oeuvre of Franco. Le Blanc's catalogue lists it as number 7, while Bartsch, in his extensive documentation of prints, categorizes it under volume XVI, number 10. These references are crucial for art historians and collectors in identifying and authenticating the work.

Franco's depiction of the Flagellation is marked by its dramatic intensity and meticulous attention to detail. The composition captures the moment of Christ's suffering with a poignant realism, emphasizing the physical and emotional torment of the scene. The figures are rendered with a dynamic sense of movement, showcasing Franco's skill in conveying human anatomy and expression. The use of light and shadow in the engraving enhances the three-dimensionality of the figures, creating a powerful visual impact.

Battista Franco's work was heavily influenced by his contemporaries and predecessors, including Michelangelo and Raphael, whose styles he assimilated and reinterpreted in his engravings. The Flagellation stands as a testament to Franco's ability to blend these influences with his unique artistic vision, resulting in a work that is both historically significant and artistically accomplished.

This engraving not only reflects the religious fervor of the period but also serves as an exemplar of the technical prowess and creative ingenuity that defined Renaissance printmaking. The Flagellation by Battista Franco remains an important piece for the study of Renaissance art and the evolution of engraving techniques during this pivotal era in art history.
