"Denial of St Peter" (circa 1625) is a significant oil painting by the French Baroque artist Nicolas Tournier. Known for his dramatic and expressive style, Tournier was a prominent figure in the Caravaggisti movement, a group of artists inspired by the Italian master Caravaggio. This painting is a prime example of Tournier's adept use of chiaroscuro and his ability to capture human emotion.

The artwork depicts the biblical scene from the New Testament in which the Apostle Peter denies knowing Jesus Christ three times before the rooster crows, as Jesus had predicted at the Last Supper. This moment of human frailty and betrayal is a common subject in Christian art, symbolizing repentance and the mercy of forgiveness.

Tournier's rendition of the scene is notable for its intense realism and the psychological depth he imparts to the figures. The interplay of light and shadow not only highlights the drama of the moment but also serves to focus the viewer's attention on the central figure of Peter, whose expression conveys a tumult of shame and fear. The bystanders are depicted with a range of reactions, adding to the narrative complexity of the scene.

The painting is a testament to Tournier's skill in composition and his ability to convey narrative through visual means. "Denial of St Peter" is an important work within Tournier's oeuvre and contributes to our understanding of the Baroque period's approach to biblical storytelling through art. It remains an object of study for art historians and a cherished piece for its emotional resonance and technical mastery.
