"Judyta i Holofernes" (Judith and Holofernes) is a notable engraving by the French artist Jean Pierre Marie Jazet (1788–1871), which depicts the biblical story of Judith beheading the Assyrian general Holofernes. The artwork is based on the apocryphal Book of Judith, which has been a frequent subject of artistic representation in the history of Western art, symbolizing the themes of virtue over tyranny and the power of seduction.

Jazet, known for his mastery in engraving, captures the dramatic climax of the tale with meticulous detail and emotional intensity. The composition likely reflects the influence of the high drama and chiaroscuro techniques characteristic of the Baroque period, even though Jazet himself worked in the 19th century, a period that saw a revival of interest in earlier artistic styles.

In the engraving, Judith is typically portrayed as a figure of both beauty and resolve, often with an attendant maid, as she carries out the act of decapitating Holofernes, who is usually depicted in a state of inebriation or sleep. The artwork serves not only as a representation of the biblical narrative but also as a reflection of the cultural and artistic attitudes of the time regarding heroism, gender, and morality.

Jean Pierre Marie Jazet's work on "Judyta i Holofernes" contributes to the rich tapestry of interpretations of this enduring story, offering viewers a glimpse into the 19th-century revival of classical and biblical themes through the lens of engraving. The piece remains an important example of Jazet's artistic legacy and the broader tradition of European art engaging with scriptural subjects.
