"Christ Among the Doctors" is a fresco by the Italian painter Giotto di Bondone, created in the early 14th century as part of a series of frescoes in the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua, Italy. This work depicts a scene from the life of Jesus Christ, specifically an episode from the Gospel of Luke (2:41–52), where the twelve-year-old Jesus, having been found in the Temple of Jerusalem, is shown engaging in discussion with the elders and doctors of the law, astonishing them with his understanding and answers.

Giotto, renowned for his contributions to the development of a more naturalistic approach to painting, has imbued this fresco with a sense of depth and volume that was revolutionary for its time. The figures are rendered with a solidity and presence that reflect Giotto's break from the more stylized Byzantine art that preceded him, and his work is often considered a precursor to the Renaissance style of painting.

In "Christ Among the Doctors," Giotto arranges the figures in a semi-circular formation, with Jesus at the center, creating a focal point that draws the viewer's attention to the young Christ. The expressions and gestures of the figures surrounding Jesus convey a mix of surprise, curiosity, and respect, highlighting the extraordinary nature of the event. The use of chiaroscuro, or the contrast between light and dark, helps to give the figures a three-dimensional quality and enhances the dramatic effect of the scene.

This fresco is part of a larger narrative cycle in the Scrovegni Chapel that illustrates the life of the Virgin Mary and Christ. Giotto's work in the chapel is considered one of his masterpieces and a landmark in the history of Western art. The "Christ Among the Doctors" fresco is particularly noted for its emotional impact and the humanization of the sacred figures, characteristics that are hallmarks of Giotto's innovative style.

The Scrovegni Chapel, also known as the Arena Chapel, was commissioned by the wealthy banker Enrico Scrovegni and is one of the most important and well-preserved examples of early 14th-century Italian fresco painting. Giotto's frescoes have been influential in the development of Western art and continue to be studied and admired for their artistic significance and beauty.
