"Jesus and the Woman Taken in Adultery" is a renowned engraving by the French artist Gustave Doré, illustrating a scene from the Christian Bible. The artwork depicts the narrative found in the Gospel of John, chapter 8, verses 3-11, where Jesus is confronted by the scribes and Pharisees with a woman accused of adultery. In this dramatic moment, the accusers seek to test Jesus, asking whether the woman should be stoned as prescribed by Mosaic Law. Jesus responds with the famous line, "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her," prompting the accusers to leave one by one, convicted by their own conscience.

Doré's work is part of his larger body of biblical illustrations, which were widely disseminated and celebrated for their dramatic intensity and intricate detail. Created in the 19th century, his engravings for the Bible were part of a larger project that included illustrations for both the Old and New Testaments, published in various editions and contributing significantly to the visual culture of biblical interpretation during that era.

The engraving "Jesus and the Woman Taken in Adultery" is characterized by Doré's signature style, which often features bold contrasts of light and shadow, expressive figures, and an attention to the emotional and spiritual dimensions of the biblical narratives. His work not only served as a devotional aid for the faithful but also as a source of inspiration for other artists, writers, and composers who sought to capture the essence of the biblical stories in their own mediums.

Gustave Doré's illustrations have had a lasting impact on the visual arts and continue to be studied for their artistic merit and contribution to the understanding of biblical themes. "Jesus and the Woman Taken in Adultery" remains a poignant example of Doré's ability to convey complex theological and moral questions through the power of visual art.
