Verklärung Christi, also known as The Transfiguration of Christ, is a notable painting by the Austrian Baroque artist Martin Johann Schmidt, who is often referred to as Kremser Schmidt. Born in 1718 in Grafenwörth, Lower Austria, Schmidt became one of the most prominent painters of the Austrian Baroque period, renowned for his religious compositions, altarpieces, and frescoes. His works are characterized by their dramatic use of light and shadow, dynamic compositions, and emotional intensity, all of which are evident in Verklärung Christi.

The painting depicts the biblical event of the Transfiguration of Jesus, a pivotal moment described in the New Testament where Jesus is transfigured and becomes radiant upon a mountain, in the presence of three of his apostles: Peter, James, and John. In this scene, Jesus is joined by the prophets Moses and Elijah, symbolizing the Law and the Prophets, respectively. Schmidt's interpretation of this event captures the divine and mystical nature of the moment, with Jesus at the center, bathed in a celestial light that contrasts with the darker, more earthly tones of the surrounding figures.

Schmidt's mastery in handling light is particularly evident in this work, where the luminous figure of Christ creates a focal point that draws the viewer's eye. The expressions and gestures of the apostles convey a sense of awe and reverence, enhancing the spiritual impact of the scene. The artist's use of color and composition not only highlights the transcendental nature of the event but also reflects the Baroque era's emphasis on emotional engagement and dramatic effect.

Verklärung Christi stands as a testament to Martin Johann Schmidt's skill and his ability to convey complex theological themes through his art. The painting remains an important example of Baroque religious art and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and spiritual significance.
