"The Massacre of the Innocents" by Charles Le Brun is a significant historical painting that vividly portrays the biblical episode of the mass killing of young male children in Bethlehem, as ordered by King Herod in an attempt to eliminate the newborn Jesus. Created by Charles Le Brun, a prominent French painter and art theorist of the 17th century, this work is an exemplar of the French Baroque style, characterized by its dramatic intensity, rich color palette, and dynamic movement.

Le Brun, who was the principal painter to King Louis XIV and played a key role in establishing the French Academy in Rome, utilized his art to not only explore religious and mythological themes but also to propagate the grandeur of the French monarchy. "The Massacre of the Innocents" reflects his mastery in composition and his ability to evoke emotional intensity, which are hallmarks of his extensive oeuvre.

This painting not only serves as a religious representation but also as a political allegory, mirroring the absolute power wielded by monarchs of the time. Through this artwork, Le Brun conveys the horror and tragedy of the event, making a profound commentary on innocence and tyranny. The work is housed in a notable museum collection, continuing to attract scholarly attention and public interest for its artistic and historical significance.
