"Cristo Crocifisso" is a notable oil painting by the Spanish Baroque artist Mateo Cerezo (1637–1666). This work, translating to "Christ Crucified" in English, is a representation of Jesus Christ on the cross, a common subject in Christian art, particularly in the Baroque period, which was characterized by dramatic expression and a heightened sense of emotion.

Mateo Cerezo was born in Burgos and is recognized for his skillful use of color and light, as well as his ability to convey religious sentiment and human emotion in his works. "Cristo Crocifisso" exemplifies these qualities, showcasing Cerezo's adeptness at capturing the somber and poignant moment of the crucifixion with a refined interplay of light and shadow, imbuing the scene with a sense of depth and realism.

The painting is a testament to Cerezo's mastery of the tenebrist style, which involves the use of sharp contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and to direct viewers' attention to particular elements of the composition. In "Cristo Crocifisso," the figure of Christ is illuminated against a dark background, drawing the viewer's focus to the central figure and the emotional gravity of the scene.

While the exact date of creation for "Cristo Crocifisso" is not definitively known, it is believed to have been painted during the artist's mature period. The work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its contribution to the understanding of Spanish Baroque religious painting and the cultural context in which it was created.

"Cristo Crocifisso" by Mateo Cerezo remains an important work for scholars studying Spanish art of the 17th century, as well as for those interested in the broader European Baroque movement. The painting is also a valuable piece for religious institutions and art collectors who appreciate its devotional subject matter and the skill with which it was rendered.
