"Maestà: Christ Washing the Disciples' Feet" is a notable 14th-century religious painting by the Italian artist Duccio di Buoninsegna, a prominent figure in the development of Italian painting, especially in Siena. This work is part of a larger altarpiece, the Maestà, which was commissioned for the high altar of Siena Cathedral and completed in 1311. The Maestà is celebrated for its grandeur and complexity, and "Christ Washing the Disciples' Feet" is one of the many individual scenes depicted within this masterpiece.

The painting illustrates the biblical episode from the Gospel of John (13:1-17), where Jesus performs the humble act of washing his disciples' feet before the Last Supper, symbolizing service and humility. This particular scene is significant in Christian art as it emphasizes the virtues of humility and the importance of Christ's example of servant leadership.

Duccio's rendering of this event is notable for its emotional depth and the intricate details that characterize his work. The composition likely reflects the Gothic style's influence, with elegant lines and a sense of movement, while also incorporating the emerging naturalism that would come to define the Renaissance. The use of color, attention to detail, and the intimate interaction between the figures reflect Duccio's skill in conveying narrative and theological themes through art.

"Christ Washing the Disciples' Feet" would have been an integral part of the visual and devotional experience for viewers of the Maestà, contributing to the altarpiece's role as an object of veneration and a didactic tool for the faithful. Today, the work is recognized for its artistic significance and its role in the evolution of European painting, offering insight into the religious and cultural context of the Late Middle Ages in Italy.
