"Expulsion of the Moneychangers from the Temple" is a renowned baroque painting by Italian artist Luca Giordano, created in the late 17th century. This dynamic work of art depicts the biblical scene from the Gospel of John, where Jesus Christ drives out the merchants and money changers from the Temple in Jerusalem, an event often referred to as the Cleansing of the Temple. Giordano, known for his rapid painting technique and called 'Fa Presto' (work quickly) by his contemporaries, was a prolific painter whose style was influenced by the dramatic naturalism of Caravaggio and the vibrant colors and dynamic compositions of Peter Paul Rubens.

In this painting, Giordano captures the moment with vigorous energy and emotion, emphasizing the moral and spiritual fervor of the scene. The composition is characterized by a flurry of activity as figures react to the chaos instigated by Christ's righteous indignation. The use of chiaroscuro, the strong contrast between light and dark, serves to highlight the central figures and underscore the intensity of the moment.

The artwork is a testament to Giordano's mastery of large-scale religious scenes and his ability to convey complex narratives through his art. "Expulsion of the Moneychangers from the Temple" is not only a significant example of Giordano's artistic skill but also reflects the Counter-Reformation's emphasis on dramatic and emotional religious art that was intended to inspire piety and devotion in viewers.

The painting is part of a rich tradition of artists interpreting this biblical event, each bringing their own perspective and style to the subject. Giordano's interpretation is particularly noted for its vigorous movement and emotional power, hallmarks of the Baroque period's artistic aims. As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is housed in a notable museum or art collection, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
