"The Baptism of Christ" is a fresco by the Italian Renaissance painter Domenico Ghirlandaio, created between 1485 and 1490. This artwork is part of a larger series of frescoes that adorn the Tornabuoni Chapel in the church of Santa Maria Novella, Florence. The fresco illustrates the biblical event of Jesus Christ being baptized by John the Baptist in the River Jordan, a moment that holds significant religious importance as it represents the beginning of Jesus's public ministry.

Ghirlandaio, known for his narrative clarity and attention to detail, has depicted this scene with a rich array of characters and a landscape that reflects the beauty of the natural world, as well as the humanistic interest of the Renaissance period. The central figures of Christ and John the Baptist are portrayed with a serene dignity, while angels and onlookers populate the background, providing a sense of depth and context to the event.

The fresco is notable for its harmonious composition and the use of perspective, which was a relatively new technique at the time. Ghirlandaio's mastery in rendering the figures and the landscape in a realistic manner showcases the influence of his contemporaries and predecessors, such as Masaccio and Andrea del Verrocchio, while also highlighting his own artistic contributions to the development of Renaissance art.

As a significant work of the Italian Renaissance, "The Baptism of Christ" by Domenico Ghirlandaio is an important example of the religious and artistic themes that dominated the period. The fresco remains a testament to Ghirlandaio's skill as a painter and his ability to convey complex theological narratives through the medium of fresco painting.
