"Christ in Glory" is a Baroque-era painting created around 1660 by the Italian artist Mattia Preti, who was known for his dynamic compositions and a dramatic use of light and shadow characteristic of the Baroque period. This work is an example of Preti's religious art, depicting Jesus Christ in a moment of divine revelation or ascension, surrounded by a burst of heavenly light that emphasizes his holy nature and the glory of the moment.

The painting is notable for its rich color palette and the sense of movement conveyed by the flowing drapery and the arrangement of figures. Preti's use of chiaroscuro—a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark—enhances the three-dimensionality of the forms and adds a theatrical quality to the scene. "Christ in Glory" reflects Preti's mastery in creating spiritual and emotive narratives that engage the viewer, a skill that made him a prominent figure in the Baroque movement, particularly in the realm of religious art.

Mattia Preti (1613–1699) was an Italian Baroque artist who worked in Italy and Malta. He was a member of the Order of Saint John and was knighted by the order in Malta, where he left a significant artistic legacy. His work was influenced by Caravaggio, and he is known for his contributions to the Italian and Maltese Baroque styles. "Christ in Glory" is part of Preti's extensive oeuvre, which includes frescoes, altarpieces, and canvases that often explore religious themes with a dynamic and expressive approach.

While the specific provenance and current location of "Christ in Glory" are not detailed here, works by Mattia Preti are held in various museums and collections around the world, and his paintings continue to be studied for their artistic and historical significance within the context of 17th-century European art.
