"The Betrayal of Christ" is a significant religious painting by the Italian artist Giuseppe Cesari, also known as the Cavaliere d'Arpino, created between 1596 and 1597. This work exemplifies the Mannerist style that was prevalent at the end of the 16th century, characterized by its complex composition, elongated figures, and heightened emotional expression. The painting depicts the dramatic moment of Jesus Christ's betrayal by Judas Iscariot in the Garden of Gethsemane, an event that is pivotal to the Christian narrative of the Passion.

Cesari's interpretation of this moment is notable for its dynamic arrangement of figures and the use of chiaroscuro to enhance the emotional intensity of the scene. The central figures of Christ and Judas are often portrayed in a moment of confrontation or the infamous kiss, surrounded by the apostles and the soldiers who have come to arrest Jesus. The work is imbued with a sense of movement and tension, reflecting the turmoil of the event.

Giuseppe Cesari's "The Betrayal of Christ" is an important example of late 16th-century Italian painting, showcasing the artist's skill in conveying narrative and emotion through his art. Cesari, who was a leading painter in Rome at the turn of the 17th century, enjoyed the patronage of important figures, including Pope Clement VIII. His work on this subject contributes to the rich tradition of religious art in the period and offers insight into the artistic and devotional practices of the time. The painting is a testament to Cesari's mastery of Mannerist techniques and his ability to capture the gravity of religious themes with profound artistic expression.
