"Crossing of the Red Sea" is a renowned fresco by the Italian Renaissance painter Cosimo Rosselli, completed in the late 15th century. This artwork is part of the series of frescoes that adorn the walls of the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City, commissioned by Pope Sixtus IV. The fresco depicts the biblical episode from the Book of Exodus, where Moses, by divine command, parts the Red Sea to allow the Israelites to escape from the pursuing Egyptian army, which is subsequently engulfed by the returning waters, marking a pivotal moment in the Israelites' journey from slavery to freedom.

Cosimo Rosselli (1439 – 1507), an artist from Florence, was among the group of painters, which included Sandro Botticelli, Domenico Ghirlandaio, and Pietro Perugino, selected to decorate the walls of the chapel with scenes from the life of Moses and the life of Christ, symbolizing the continuity between the Old Testament and the New Testament. Rosselli's "Crossing of the Red Sea" is particularly noted for its vivid portrayal of the dramatic event, the dynamic composition, and the use of color, demonstrating Rosselli's skill in creating a narrative that is both visually compelling and theologically significant.

The fresco is located on the southern wall of the chapel, opposite the scenes from the life of Christ, and is part of a larger narrative cycle that illustrates the theme of divine intervention and salvation in biblical history. Rosselli's work on the Sistine Chapel, including the "Crossing of the Red Sea," contributed to his reputation as a master painter of the Renaissance, capable of conveying complex religious themes through his art. The fresco remains an important example of Renaissance artistic achievement and a key piece in the study of biblical art, reflecting the era's advancements in technique, perspective, and the humanistic interpretation of scriptural stories.
