''Christ Mocked'' (1308-1311) is a significant work by the Italian painter Duccio di Buoninsegna, who is considered one of the foremost figures in the development of Western art. This painting is part of a larger ensemble known as the Maestà, a monumental altarpiece that was originally created for the cathedral of Siena. The Maestà is celebrated for its intricate narrative scenes depicting the life of Christ, and ''Christ Mocked'' is one of these scenes, showcasing Duccio's mastery in conveying complex emotional narratives within a religious context.

The artwork illustrates the moment of Christ's Passion, capturing the intense and somber episode where Jesus is scorned and tormented by his captors before his crucifixion. Duccio's treatment of this subject is notable for its emotional depth and the delicate interplay of gestures and gazes among the figures, which creates a powerful sense of interaction and drama. The painting is executed in tempera and gold on a wood panel, a common medium of the time, which allowed Duccio to achieve a rich color palette and intricate details.

As a part of the Maestà, ''Christ Mocked'' contributes to the narrative cycle that was a significant innovation in Italian painting, moving away from the Byzantine style towards a more naturalistic and human approach. This shift is evident in the way Duccio renders the figures with a sense of volume and space, and in his attention to the psychological portrayal of the characters involved in the scene.

''Christ Mocked'' is not only a testament to Duccio's artistic skill but also an important historical artifact that provides insight into the religious and cultural milieu of early 14th-century Siena. The work is currently housed in the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo in Siena, Italy, where it continues to be an object of admiration and study for its artistic and devotional significance.
