"Christ and the Woman Taken in Adultery" is a painting by Lucas Cranach the Elder, a prominent German Renaissance artist known for his portraits and religious scenes. Created around 1532, this work depicts the biblical story from the Gospel of John, where Jesus is confronted by the Pharisees with a woman accused of adultery. The Pharisees seek to trap Jesus by asking if she should be stoned according to Mosaic Law. Instead, Jesus responds, "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone," prompting the accusers to leave one by one.

Cranach's painting captures the moment of confrontation with a focus on the expressions and gestures of the figures. Jesus is depicted with a calm and authoritative demeanor, emphasizing his role as a compassionate and wise teacher. The woman, often shown in a state of distress, is portrayed with a sense of vulnerability and hope. Cranach's use of color and composition highlights the tension and drama of the scene, drawing the viewer's attention to the moral and ethical implications of the narrative.

The artwork is notable for its detailed rendering and the way it reflects the Northern Renaissance's emphasis on realism and human emotion. Cranach's style is characterized by his precise lines and the use of vibrant colors, which bring a sense of immediacy and life to the biblical story. This painting is part of a broader body of work by Cranach that explores themes of morality, justice, and redemption, often with a focus on the human experience.

"Christ and the Woman Taken in Adultery" is housed in various collections, with versions and copies attributed to Cranach and his workshop. The painting remains a significant example of Cranach's ability to convey complex theological ideas through art, making it a valuable piece for both art historians and those interested in religious studies.
