"Baptism of the Vajk" is a historical painting by the Hungarian artist Gyula Benczúr, created in 1875. The artwork depicts the baptism of Vajk, who would later become known as King Stephen I of Hungary, marking a pivotal moment in Hungarian history when the country began its transition to Christianity. Benczúr, a prominent figure in 19th-century Hungarian art, was known for his classical style and his works often focused on historical and mythological themes.

The painting is significant both for its artistic merit and its cultural importance. It captures a scene of great national symbolism, reflecting the momentous religious and political change that would lead to the establishment of the Christian Kingdom of Hungary. In the composition, Benczúr portrays the young Vajk surrounded by figures of the Church and nobility, emphasizing the support and legitimacy provided by these institutions for his future rule.

Gyula Benczúr's meticulous attention to detail, his use of color, and his ability to convey the solemnity of the event have been praised by art critics. The painting is often highlighted for its dramatic portrayal of light and shadow, which adds to the depth and gravitas of the scene. "Baptism of the Vajk" is not only a masterpiece of Hungarian art but also serves as a visual representation of a nation's identity and its historical roots in Christianity.

The painting is housed in the Hungarian National Gallery in Budapest and continues to be an object of study for art historians and a source of national pride for Hungary. It is frequently referenced in discussions of Hungarian art from the period and is considered one of Benczúr's most important works.
