"The Massacre of the Innocents" by Domenico Tintoretto, also known as Domenico Robusti, is a significant work of art that depicts the biblical narrative of Herod the Great's order to kill all male infants in Bethlehem in an attempt to eliminate the newborn Jesus, as described in the Gospel of Matthew (2:16-18). This painting is one of the many interpretations of the theme that has been a subject of artistic representation throughout the history of Western art.

Domenico Tintoretto, born in 1560, was the son of the renowned Venetian painter Jacopo Tintoretto and followed in his father's footsteps, becoming a prominent artist in his own right. Domenico's style was heavily influenced by his father's dramatic use of light and shadow, as well as by the Venetian colorism that characterized the work of the Venetian school during the late Renaissance.

In "The Massacre of the Innocents," Tintoretto captures the horror and chaos of the event through dynamic composition and expressive figures. The painting is noted for its emotional intensity, with the anguished expressions of the mothers and the brutality of the soldiers rendered in vivid detail. Tintoretto's use of color and his ability to convey movement and drama are evident in this work, which reflects the artist's mastery of narrative painting.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not definitively known, it is believed to have been produced in the late 16th or early 17th century, during the latter part of Domenico Tintoretto's career.
