The "Maestà: Betrayal of Christ" is a significant panel painting by the Italian artist Duccio di Buoninsegna, created as part of his larger work, the Maestà altarpiece, for the Siena Cathedral in Siena, Italy. This masterpiece of Gothic art was commissioned in 1308 and completed in 1311. The "Betrayal of Christ" is one of the many narrative scenes depicted on the back of the altarpiece, which is dedicated to the life of Christ and the Virgin Mary.

The panel illustrates the dramatic moment of Judas Iscariot betraying Jesus with a kiss in the Garden of Gethsemane, a pivotal event in the Passion of Christ. This scene is characterized by its emotional intensity and the intricate interplay of gestures and gazes among the figures. Duccio's mastery in conveying narrative and emotion is evident in the detailed expressions and the dynamic composition of the panel.

Duccio's work on the Maestà altarpiece marked a significant departure from the Byzantine style that dominated Italian painting at the time. His innovative use of space, color, and light, as well as his attention to human emotion, contributed to the development of a more naturalistic and expressive approach in art, which would influence the evolution of Italian painting throughout the 14th century and beyond.

The "Betrayal of Christ" panel, along with the rest of the Maestà altarpiece, is celebrated for its artistic significance and is considered a landmark in the history of Western art. The altarpiece was originally installed in the Siena Cathedral but was later disassembled. Today, the individual panels are dispersed across several museums, with the majority, including the "Betrayal of Christ," housed in the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo in Siena.
