Cristofano Allori (1577–1621) was an Italian painter of the late Mannerist period, known for his meticulous technique and dramatic compositions. One of his most celebrated works is "Judith with the Head of Holofernes," which exemplifies his mastery in rendering texture and emotion. This painting, completed around 1613, is often considered Allori's magnum opus and is notable for its vivid portrayal of the biblical heroine Judith, who beheaded the Assyrian general Holofernes to save her city.

"Judith with the Head of Holofernes" is distinguished by its striking realism and the psychological depth of its characters. The painting captures the moment after the beheading, with Judith holding the severed head of Holofernes by the hair. The expression on Judith's face is one of resolute determination, while her maidservant, who stands beside her, appears more apprehensive. Allori's use of chiaroscuro enhances the dramatic tension, casting parts of the scene in deep shadow while illuminating Judith's face and the gruesome trophy she holds.

The work is also notable for its rich, sumptuous details, particularly in the rendering of fabrics and textures. Judith's luxurious gown and the intricate patterns of the textiles are painted with a level of precision that showcases Allori's technical prowess. The artist's ability to depict different materials—such as the sheen of silk, the softness of fur, and the metallic gleam of armor—adds to the painting's overall impact.

Allori's "Judith with the Head of Holofernes" reflects the influence of his mentor, Alessandro Allori, as well as the broader trends of the Florentine school. However, Cristofano's work is marked by a greater emotional intensity and a more naturalistic approach to human anatomy and expression. The painting remains an important example of late Mannerist art and continues to be admired for its combination of technical skill and emotional power.
