"The Flagellation" is a renowned relief sculpture by the Italian artist Lorenzo Ghiberti, created in the early 15th century as part of his larger work on the doors of the Florence Baptistery. These doors, later referred to as the "Gates of Paradise," are considered a masterpiece of the Italian Renaissance and one of Ghiberti's most significant contributions to art and architecture.

The relief of "The Flagellation" depicts the biblical scene of Jesus Christ being scourged before his crucifixion. It is one of the many panels that make up the doors, each illustrating various scenes from the Old and New Testaments. Ghiberti's work is celebrated for its innovative use of perspective, which was groundbreaking at the time, and for the delicate and detailed craftsmanship that gives life to the figures and the narrative they portray.

In "The Flagellation," Ghiberti employs a schiacciato technique, a method of shallow relief carving that creates a remarkable sense of depth and three-dimensionality within the confines of a limited space. The composition of the panel shows a keen awareness of classical forms and a mastery of human anatomy, reflecting the Renaissance interest in the natural world and the revival of Greco-Roman ideals.

Ghiberti's work on the Baptistery doors spanned over two decades, from 1425 to 1452, and "The Flagellation" stands as a testament to the artist's skill and the cultural flourishing of Florence during this period. The doors, including "The Flagellation," have been praised by contemporaries and later artists alike, with Michelangelo himself purportedly naming them worthy of being the "Gates of Paradise."

Today, the original panels, including "The Flagellation," have been moved to the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo in Florence to preserve them from damage, while replicas adorn the Baptistery, continuing to draw the admiration of visitors from around the world.
