"Moses Striking Water from the Rock" is a renowned painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Jacopo Bassano, also known as Jacopo da Ponte. This work, dating from the late 16th century, exemplifies Bassano's mature style, which is characterized by a vivid use of color and dynamic composition, as well as an integration of landscape and genre elements into religious subject matter.

The painting depicts the biblical episode from the Book of Exodus, where Moses, the leader of the Israelites, is commanded by God to strike a rock with his staff to bring forth water for his thirsty followers in the desert. Bassano's interpretation of this miracle is notable for its dramatic intensity and the emotional expressions of the figures, which range from awe to desperation, reflecting the dire circumstances of the Israelites before the miracle occurs.

Set against a backdrop of a rugged and expansive landscape, the figures are rendered with a naturalism that was innovative for the time, showing Bassano's departure from the idealized forms of the High Renaissance in favor of a more direct observation of nature and human emotion. The work is also significant for its use of chiaroscuro, the contrast of light and shadow, which adds to the theatrical effect of the scene.

"Moses Striking Water from the Rock" is considered one of Bassano's masterpieces and is a key example of the Venetian School's contribution to the Mannerist movement, which was characterized by complex compositions, elongated figures, and a focus on the artificiality of art. The painting's exact date of creation is uncertain, but it is generally placed in the latter part of Bassano's career, likely in the 1570s.

Today, the painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a reflection of the religious and cultural milieu of late Renaissance Italy. It remains an important work for the study of Bassano's oeuvre and the broader context of 16th-century Venetian art.
