"Cristo e l'adultera" (Christ and the Adulteress) is a renowned oil painting by Luca Giordano, a prolific Italian painter of the Baroque period. This artwork, dating from the late 17th century, exemplifies Giordano's dynamic style and his ability to convey complex narratives through his paintings. The scene depicted in the painting is drawn from the biblical episode in the Gospel of John (8:3-11), where Jesus is presented with a woman taken in adultery and challenged to pass judgment on her. In a display of mercy and wisdom, Jesus responds to her accusers with the famous line, "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her," prompting the accusers to depart and leaving the woman forgiven.

Giordano's interpretation of this moment is characterized by his dramatic use of light and shadow, a hallmark of Baroque art, which serves to highlight the emotional intensity of the scene. The figures are rendered with a sense of movement and immediacy that reflects the influence of his master, Ribera, and the dynamism typical of the Baroque era. The composition is carefully constructed to guide the viewer's eye towards the central figures of Christ and the adulteress, emphasizing the pivotal interaction between divine grace and human frailty.

The painting is notable for its vivid portrayal of the human condition and the artist's skillful handling of both the moral and psychological dimensions of the story. "Cristo e l'adultera" remains an important work in the oeuvre of Luca Giordano and continues to be studied for its artistic and thematic significance. It is a testament to the enduring power of religious narrative in art and the capacity of Baroque painters to breathe life and emotion into these timeless stories.
