"Saint John the Baptist (sometimes called John in the Wilderness) is a work by the Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, painted in 1604. This painting is one of an array of works by Caravaggio depicting the figure of John the Baptist, a subject he returned to several times throughout his career. It is housed in the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri.

Caravaggio's portrayal of John the Baptist is notable for its dramatic realism and chiaroscuro, a technique that became synonymous with the artist's style. In this work, Caravaggio presents John as a brooding adolescent set against a dark background, a departure from the more traditional representations of the Baptist as either an ascetic prophet or a cherubic child. The figure is rendered with a strong sense of physical presence and emotional intensity, capturing the viewer's attention and inviting contemplation on the subject's inner life.

The painting's composition, with John the Baptist's reclined pose and direct gaze, along with the use of naturalistic detail and tenebrism, exemplifies Caravaggio's innovative approach to religious subjects. This approach not only marked a significant shift in the portrayal of biblical figures during the Counter-Reformation but also influenced a generation of artists after him.

Saint John the Baptist (1604) is considered a significant work in Caravaggio's oeuvre, reflecting his mature style. It contributes to the understanding of his artistic evolution and his impact on the development of Baroque art. The painting has been studied extensively for its stylistic and thematic elements, and it continues to be a subject of scholarly interest within the field of art history."
