"Flagellation" is a renowned painting by the Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, created around 1607. This work is a striking example of Caravaggio's dramatic use of chiaroscuro, the technique of using strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and three-dimensionality. The painting depicts the biblical scene of the Flagellation of Christ, a moment of intense suffering and humiliation endured by Jesus before his crucifixion.

In "Flagellation," Caravaggio captures the raw emotion and physical torment of the scene with his characteristic realism and attention to detail. The composition is tightly focused on the central figure of Christ, who is bound to a column and subjected to brutal whipping by three tormentors. The figures are rendered with a stark naturalism, their muscular forms and expressions of exertion and pain vividly conveyed. The use of light in the painting is particularly notable; a single, harsh light source illuminates Christ's body, casting deep shadows that heighten the drama and pathos of the scene.

Caravaggio's "Flagellation" is housed in the Museo di Capodimonte in Naples, Italy. It was commissioned by the de Franchis family for the church of San Domenico Maggiore in Naples, reflecting the Counter-Reformation emphasis on vivid, emotionally engaging religious art that could inspire piety and devotion among the faithful. The painting's intense realism and emotional power exemplify Caravaggio's revolutionary approach to religious art, which broke with the idealized forms of the Renaissance and brought a new immediacy and humanity to biblical subjects.

"Flagellation" remains one of Caravaggio's most compelling works, demonstrating his mastery of light and shadow, his unflinching portrayal of human suffering, and his ability to convey deep spiritual and emotional truths through his art.
