"Judith with Holoferne's Head" is a notable Baroque painting by Italian artist Massimo Stanzione, created in the 17th century. The artwork depicts the biblical story of Judith, a Jewish widow from the Book of Judith in the Apocrypha, who seduced and subsequently beheaded the Assyrian general Holofernes to save her city from siege. Stanzione's interpretation of this dramatic event is characterized by its intense emotional expression and dynamic composition, reflecting the Baroque era's emphasis on movement, contrast, and theatricality.

In the painting, Judith is often portrayed holding the severed head of Holofernes, an image that has been widely represented in art history as a symbol of virtue triumphing over tyranny. Stanzione's rendition is particularly noted for its vivid portrayal of Judith's resolve and the gruesome realism of Holofernes's head. The use of chiaroscuro, a technique involving strong contrasts between light and dark, serves to heighten the dramatic effect and draw the viewer's attention to the central figures.

Massimo Stanzione (1585–1656) was an influential artist of the Neapolitan school, and his works are celebrated for their blend of naturalism and idealization. "Judith with Holoferne's Head" is considered one of his masterpieces and contributes to the understanding of Baroque art in Italy, particularly in the context of Neapolitan painting. The artwork is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and historical implications, as it reflects the period's attitudes towards female agency and the power dynamics of the time.

The painting is held in high esteem by art historians and is frequently studied for its style, technique, and place within Stanzione's oeuvre. It remains an important piece for both its aesthetic qualities and its narrative content, offering insight into the era's artistic trends and the enduring allure of the Judith story in the visual arts.
