"La Figlia di Jefte" is a notable painting by the French artist Nicolas Colombel (1644–1717), created in 1682 during the Baroque period. The artwork depicts the biblical story of Jephthah's daughter from the Book of Judges in the Hebrew Bible. In the narrative, Jephthah, an Israelite leader and judge, vows to God that if he is granted victory over the Ammonites, he will sacrifice the first thing that greets him upon his return home. Tragically, his daughter is the first to welcome him, leading to her eventual sacrifice in fulfillment of his vow.

Colombel's interpretation of this poignant tale is characterized by its dramatic expression and the use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and depth. The painting is a testament to Colombel's mastery of Baroque sensibilities, with a focus on emotional intensity and the exploration of themes such as devotion, tragedy, and the human condition.

The composition of "La Figlia di Jefte" is carefully constructed to guide the viewer's attention to the central figures: Jephthah and his daughter. The artist's use of color, light, and shadow not only highlights the emotional climax of the story but also reflects the broader artistic trends of the era, which favored theatricality and grandeur.

Nicolas Colombel was a prominent figure in the French art scene of the late 17th century, having studied under the distinguished painter Charles Le Brun. His works are known for their classical influences and often feature religious and mythological subjects. "La Figlia di Jefte" remains one of Colombel's most recognized pieces and serves as an important example of his contribution to the Baroque movement in France.

The painting is part of the collection at the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Strasbourg, where it continues to be studied and admired for its historical significance and artistic merit. Through "La Figlia di Jefte," Colombel's legacy endures, offering insight into the cultural and artistic values of his time.
