Painting Description
"Tables of the Law with the Golden Calf" (1481-82) is a fresco by the Italian Renaissance painter Cosimo Rosselli, located in the Sistine Chapel, Vatican City. This artwork forms part of the series of frescoes commissioned by Pope Sixtus IV to decorate the walls of the newly built chapel, which includes works by several prominent artists of the time, such as Sandro Botticelli, Domenico Ghirlandaio, and Pietro Perugino.
Rosselli's fresco depicts two pivotal scenes from the Book of Exodus: on one side, Moses is shown receiving the Tablets of the Law on Mount Sinai, while on the other, the Israelites are seen worshipping the Golden Calf, an idol they created during Moses's absence. This juxtaposition of faithfulness and idolatry serves to underscore a moral dichotomy, reflecting the themes of obedience and transgression central to the Judeo-Christian tradition.
The work is notable for its vivid color palette and dynamic composition, characteristics that are emblematic of Rosselli's style. Despite being less renowned than some of his contemporaries, Rosselli's contribution to the Sistine Chapel's decoration project is significant, as his frescoes are appreciated for their narrative clarity and decorative appeal.
"Tables of the Law with the Golden Calf" is an important example of Quattrocento mural painting and contributes to the rich iconographic program of the Sistine Chapel, which is designed to convey complex theological messages through visual means. Rosselli's fresco, along with the other works in the chapel, has been influential in the history of art and continues to attract scholarly attention and public interest.
