"Light of the Incarnation" is a notable painting by Swiss-born American artist Carl Gutherz (1844–1907). Created in 1901, this work is a significant example of Gutherz's symbolist and muralist style, which often incorporated mystical and allegorical themes. The painting is a reflection of the artist's interest in spiritual and esoteric subjects, which was common among symbolist artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The artwork depicts the moment of the Incarnation, a Christian doctrine referring to the embodiment of the divine in the person of Jesus Christ. Gutherz's interpretation of this theological concept is rendered through a complex composition that combines both religious and philosophical symbolism. The use of light in the painting is particularly noteworthy, as it serves to illustrate the divine nature of the event and its significance within Christian belief.

"Light of the Incarnation" is part of the collection at the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art in Memphis, Tennessee, which houses several works by Gutherz. The artist, who spent a significant part of his career in Memphis, was influential in the development of the arts in the region and served as a mentor to many younger artists.

The painting is an important piece within Gutherz's oeuvre and is often cited in discussions of American symbolist art. It exemplifies the cultural and artistic exchanges between Europe and the United States during a period when American artists were seeking new forms of expression and were influenced by European movements such as Symbolism and Art Nouveau. Through "Light of the Incarnation," Carl Gutherz contributes to the rich tapestry of religious art, offering a unique perspective that blends traditional Christian iconography with the more personal and introspective approach characteristic of Symbolism.
