"Christ at the House of Simon" is a painting by the Italian Baroque artist Ludovico Cardi, better known as Cigoli. Created in the early 17th century, this work exemplifies Cigoli's mastery in combining dramatic expression with meticulous attention to detail, characteristic of the Baroque period. The painting depicts the biblical scene from the Gospel of Luke, where Christ is anointed by a sinful woman at the house of Simon the Pharisee.

Cigoli's composition captures the emotional intensity of the moment, focusing on the interaction between Christ and the woman, who is often identified as Mary Magdalene. The artist employs a rich color palette and dynamic lighting to highlight the central figures, drawing the viewer's attention to their expressions and gestures. The use of chiaroscuro enhances the three-dimensionality of the scene, creating a sense of depth and realism.

The setting is an interior space, with architectural elements that suggest a sense of grandeur and opulence, reflecting the status of Simon's household. The figures are arranged in a harmonious composition, with Christ at the center, embodying calm and compassion, while the other characters display a range of emotions, from curiosity to skepticism.

Cigoli's work is notable for its psychological insight and the way it conveys the themes of forgiveness and redemption. The painting invites viewers to reflect on the transformative power of faith and the human capacity for change. It is a testament to Cigoli's ability to convey complex narratives through visual art, making it a significant piece in the study of Baroque religious paintings.

While specific details about the painting's provenance and current location may not be widely documented, "Christ at the House of Simon" remains an important example of Cigoli's contribution to the Baroque movement and his skill in depicting biblical themes with emotional depth and technical precision.
