''Cristo Benedicente'' (Christ Blessing) is a Renaissance painting by the Italian artist Bernardino Luini, a prominent figure of the Lombard school and a follower of Leonardo da Vinci. The artwork is a half-length depiction of Christ offering a blessing with his right hand raised, while his left hand holds a crystal orb, symbolizing the Christian world. Luini's mastery is evident in the delicate rendering of Christ's features, imbuing the figure with a serene and compassionate demeanor that reflects the influence of his mentor, Leonardo.

The painting is executed in oil on panel, a medium that allowed Luini to achieve a smooth finish and subtle gradations of tone, hallmarks of the Lombard style. ''Cristo Benedicente'' is notable for its refined use of sfumato, a technique perfected by Leonardo, which Luini adapted to create a gentle transition between light and shadow on the face and hands of Christ. This technique enhances the three-dimensionality and the lifelike presence of the figure.

Bernardino Luini's works are characterized by their gentle expressiveness and clarity of form, and ''Cristo Benedicente'' is no exception. The painting's provenance and history, including its original commission, ownership, and any restoration it may have undergone, contribute to its significance in the study of Northern Italian Renaissance art. As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of a private or public collection, and it continues to be an object of study for art historians interested in the diffusion of Leonardo's style and the development of Renaissance portraiture in Lombardy.
