''Yellow Christ'' (''Le Christ jaune'') is an 1889 painting by French artist Émile Bernard, a key work in the Symbolist movement and a notable example of the Pont-Aven School. The painting is a striking representation of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, set against a backdrop of the Breton landscape. Bernard's work is characterized by its use of flat areas of bold, unmodulated color, a technique that was influential in the development of Cloisonnism, a style that emphasized strong outlines and blocks of color.

The ''Yellow Christ'' features a crucified Christ in a yellow robe, with the cross seeming to blend into the autumnal landscape of the surrounding countryside, populated by Breton women in traditional dress. The juxtaposition of the religious figure with the everyday scene of Breton life reflects Bernard's interest in integrating spiritual and symbolic themes with contemporary rural life. The painting's use of color and its simplification of form were radical for the time and echoed the growing interest in primitivism and the use of symbolism to convey inner experiences and emotions.

Bernard's ''Yellow Christ'' is often associated with the work of his friend and fellow artist Paul Gauguin, who painted his own version of the ''Yellow Christ''. The two artists were influential in each other's development during this period, and their works are frequently compared and contrasted for their contributions to Post-Impressionism and the Symbolist movement. ''Yellow Christ'' is considered a seminal work for its departure from naturalism and its embrace of a more conceptual approach to painting, which would go on to influence future movements such as Expressionism and Fauvism. The painting is currently housed in the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, New York.
