"Sacrificio di Ifigenia" (The Sacrifice of Iphigenia) is a renowned oil painting by the Italian artist Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, created circa 1757. This work is one of the many masterpieces produced by Tiepolo during the Rococo period, a time characterized by elaborate and ornate art that emphasized grace, lightness, and elegance. The painting depicts the dramatic and poignant mythological scene from the ancient Greek tale of Agamemnon and his daughter Iphigenia, as recounted in various sources including Euripides' play "Iphigenia in Aulis."

The narrative captured in the painting is a moment of high tension and emotion. Agamemnon, the Greek king, is compelled to sacrifice his daughter Iphigenia to appease the goddess Artemis, who has stilled the winds and prevented the Greek fleet from sailing to Troy. In Tiepolo's interpretation, the figures are arranged in a theatrical composition, with Iphigenia at the center, resigned to her fate, while her father is depicted in a state of anguished indecision. The presence of a priest and other onlookers adds to the drama, and the divine intervention that ultimately spares Iphigenia's life is suggested by the ethereal light and the appearance of a deer, which, according to the myth, Artemis provided as a substitute for the human sacrifice.

Tiepolo's use of vibrant colors, dynamic lighting, and fluid brushwork imbues the scene with a sense of movement and emotional intensity. The painting is a testament to Tiepolo's skill in blending classical themes with the Rococo style's aesthetic, and it showcases his ability to convey complex narratives through visual art. "Sacrificio di Ifigenia" is not only a significant work in Tiepolo's oeuvre but also an important example of 18th-century European painting, reflecting the era's artistic tastes and cultural preoccupations with mythology and drama.

The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and historical significance, and it is studied for its exemplary portrayal of mythological subject matter as well as its stylistic representation of the Rococo period. "Sacrificio di Ifigenia" continues to be admired for its emotional depth and technical mastery, securing Giovanni Battista Tiepolo's reputation as one of the leading painters of his time.
