"Giuditta con la testa di Oloferne" (Judith with the Head of Holofernes) is a celebrated Baroque painting by the Italian artist Cristofano Allori (1577–1621). Created in the early 17th century, this work is renowned for its dramatic depiction of the biblical story of Judith, a Jewish widow who seduced and beheaded the Assyrian general Holofernes to save her city from siege. The painting is one of the most famous interpretations of this subject, distinguished by its intense emotional power and exquisite detail.

Allori's "Giuditta con la testa di Oloferne" is often noted for its personal connection to the artist. It is said that the model for Judith was Allori's former lover, the noblewoman Mazzafirra, while the severed head of Holofernes bears a striking resemblance to the artist himself, and the old servant woman is believed to be a portrait of his mother. This personal dimension adds a layer of psychological complexity to the work, as it intertwines themes of betrayal, revenge, and triumph with the artist's own experiences.

The painting is a masterful example of chiaroscuro, the technique of using strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and depth. Allori's use of color and his ability to capture textures, from the gleam of armor to the softness of skin, contribute to the work's visual impact. The composition, with its close-up view of the figures and the starkly lit scene, creates a sense of immediacy and intimacy that draws viewers into the narrative.

"Giuditta con la testa di Oloferne" is not only a testament to Allori's skill as a painter but also reflects the broader cultural and artistic themes of the Baroque period, including the exploration of dramatic narratives, the depiction of heroic women, and the emphasis on emotional engagement. The painting remains an important work in the canon of Italian Baroque art and continues to be studied and admired for its technical brilliance and its evocative portrayal of one of history's most enduring stories.
