"The Circumcision of the Child Jesus" is a painting by the Italian Baroque artist Guido Reni, created in the early 17th century. Reni, known for his classical and elegant style, was a prominent figure in the Bolognese School of painting. This artwork depicts the biblical scene of the circumcision of Jesus Christ, an event traditionally celebrated in Christianity as the Feast of the Circumcision, which takes place on January 1st. The ceremony, which is described in the Gospel of Luke, represents Jesus' formal incorporation into the Jewish community and is often interpreted as the first time Jesus shed his blood, prefiguring his crucifixion.

Guido Reni's interpretation of this religious subject is noted for its delicate portrayal of the figures, harmonious composition, and the use of light to imbue the scene with a sense of divinity and reverence. The painting typically features the infant Jesus, the Virgin Mary, Saint Joseph, and other figures such as priests or angels, each rendered with Reni's characteristic grace and attention to emotional expression.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is uncertain, it is believed to have been produced during Reni's mature period, when he had fully developed his distinct style that combined the dynamism of the High Baroque with the idealized beauty of the Renaissance. "The Circumcision of the Child Jesus" by Guido Reni is considered an important work within the artist's oeuvre, reflecting his religious convictions and his mastery of painting techniques. The artwork is significant not only for its artistic merits but also for its cultural and historical context, offering insight into the religious practices and iconography of the period.

The painting has been held in various collections over the centuries and has been the subject of scholarly study for its iconographic and stylistic elements. It continues to be admired for its aesthetic qualities and as an example of Reni's contribution to Baroque religious art.
