"The Judgement of Paris" is a painting by the German Renaissance artist Johann Rottenhammer, created circa 1600. This artwork depicts the mythological story from Greek legend in which Paris, a prince of Troy, is called upon to judge the most beautiful among three goddesses: Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite. The painting captures the moment of decision, a scene that has been a popular subject for artists throughout history due to its themes of beauty, desire, and the consequences of human choices.

Rottenhammer was known for his small-scale, highly detailed works, often on copper, and "The Judgement of Paris" is a prime example of his expertise in combining intricate detail with rich coloration. The painting showcases his skill in rendering figures and his ability to convey the narrative through composition and the interaction of the characters. Rottenhammer's work is characterized by the influence of Venetian colorism and the Mannerist style, which is reflected in the elegant poses of the figures and the use of vivid, contrasting colors.

The story of the Judgement of Paris has significant mythological importance as it ultimately led to the Trojan War. In Rottenhammer's interpretation, the painter brings to life the tension and the allure of the moment. Paris is seen contemplating his choice, while the goddesses exhibit their beauty and attempt to sway his decision with various promises. The inclusion of other figures, such as the messenger god Hermes and the presence of the golden apple, further enrich the narrative content of the painting.

"The Judgement of Paris" by Johann Rottenhammer is an important work within the artist's oeuvre and contributes to the broader artistic tradition of depicting classical mythology. It offers insight into the cultural and aesthetic values of the late Renaissance period and serves as a testament to Rottenhammer's artistic legacy. The painting is not only a visual representation of a well-known myth but also an embodiment of the era's artistic pursuits and the enduring fascination with the stories of antiquity.
