"Cristo e la Samaritana" (Christ and the Samaritan Woman) is a notable work by the Italian painter Giovan Battista Discepoli, also known as Lo Zoppo Da Lugano due to his lameness and his origin from Lugano, which was at the time a Swiss-Italian borderland. Discepoli, active during the late Renaissance period, is recognized for his contributions to religious art, with this particular painting being a prime example of his work.

The painting depicts the biblical scene from the Gospel of John (4:1–26), where Jesus, weary from his journey, rests by Jacob's well and engages in a profound theological conversation with a Samaritan woman. This encounter is significant in Christian theology as it addresses themes of social boundaries, redemption, and the universality of Jesus' message.

In "Cristo e la Samaritana," Discepoli captures the moment with a keen eye for detail and a rich palette, characteristic of the Mannerist style that influenced artists during his time. The composition likely features the contrast between the divine aura of Christ and the mundane curiosity of the Samaritan woman, as well as the symbolic use of water, which is a central element in the narrative.

While the exact date of creation for "Cristo e la Samaritana" is not well-documented, it is generally attributed to Discepoli's mature period. The painting would have been intended for a religious setting, possibly a church or a private chapel, where it would serve as an object of devotion and a visual aid for the contemplation of scripture.

Unfortunately, due to the scarcity of surviving works and documentation related to Discepoli's oeuvre, there is limited information available about this specific painting. As such, the provenance, current location, and critical reception of "Cristo e la Samaritana" remain obscure, and further research would be necessary to provide a more comprehensive understanding of its historical and artistic significance.
