"Christ and the Woman Taken in Adultery" is a painting by Benjamin West, an American artist who gained significant prominence in London during the late 18th century. This work, completed in 1799, is an oil on canvas and exemplifies West's engagement with religious and historical themes, which were prevalent in his larger body of work. The painting depicts the biblical story from John 8:3-11, where Jesus intervenes to prevent the stoning of a woman accused of adultery, famously declaring, "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her."

In this work, West employs a dramatic composition and strong chiaroscuro to enhance the emotional intensity of the scene. The figures are rendered with a classical dignity, a characteristic of West's style, which sought to elevate historical painting by combining idealized beauty with poignant storytelling. "Christ and the Woman Taken in Adultery" not only reflects West's religious convictions but also his artistic ambition to convey moral and ethical narratives, resonating with the Enlightenment ideals of his time.

The painting is significant in West's oeuvre as it showcases his skill in handling complex group scenes and his ability to imbue them with a sense of immediacy and psychological depth. It remains an important example of American art from the period and contributes to the understanding of the transatlantic exchange in artistic ideas and religious thought during the 18th century.
