"Judith with the Head of Holofernes" (circa 1530) is a notable work by the German Renaissance artist Lucas Cranach the Elder. This painting is an interpretation of the biblical story of Judith, a Jewish widow from the Book of Judith in the Apocrypha. In the narrative, Judith seduces and subsequently beheads the Assyrian general Holofernes to save her besieged city, Bethulia. Cranach's depiction is one of many artistic representations of this dramatic and powerful scene, which has been a popular subject for artists throughout history due to its themes of virtue, courage, and the triumph of the underdog.

In Cranach's rendition, Judith is portrayed as a figure of both beauty and strength, holding the severed head of Holofernes in one hand and the sword with which she decapitated him in the other. The work is emblematic of Cranach's style, characterized by his use of vivid colors, detailed portraiture, and a composition that balances both the elegance and the brutality of the scene. The painting is also reflective of the cultural and religious context of the time, as it was created during the Protestant Reformation, a period when biblical themes were commonly used to reflect contemporary concerns and values.

"Judith with the Head of Holofernes" is part of a larger body of work by Cranach that explores similar themes of heroism and the moral fortitude of women. The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and its representation of a powerful female biblical figure. It remains an important example of Northern Renaissance art and continues to be studied for its historical significance and its contribution to the portrayal of biblical narratives in visual art.
