"The Denial of St. Peter" is a renowned oil painting by the Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, believed to have been completed in 1610 during the artist's final years. The artwork captures the moment from the New Testament when the Apostle Peter denies knowing Jesus Christ thrice before the rooster crows, as foretold by Jesus at the Last Supper. This event is a pivotal moment in Christian iconography, symbolizing human weakness and the possibility of redemption and forgiveness.

Caravaggio's interpretation of the scene is notable for its dramatic use of chiaroscuro, a technique he mastered and which became a hallmark of his style. The painting's composition focuses on the interaction between three figures: an elderly Peter, a serving maid who recognizes him, and a soldier who looks on with suspicion. The intense play of light and shadow not only enhances the emotional tension of the scene but also serves to highlight the psychological turmoil experienced by Peter.

Measuring approximately 94 cm × 125.4 cm (37 in × 49.4 in), the painting is housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. It is one of Caravaggio's last works, painted shortly before his untimely death, and it reflects the artist's continued interest in depicting human emotion and moral complexity. The Denial of St. Peter stands as a testament to Caravaggio's enduring influence on the development of Western art, particularly in his ability to convey narrative and emotion through the interplay of light and darkness.
