"David with the Head of Goliath" is a Baroque-era painting by the Italian artist Ottavio Vannini, created in the early 17th century. Vannini, who was active in Florence, is known for his religious and historical scenes that often reflect the influence of his contemporaries, such as Caravaggio, in their dramatic use of chiaroscuro and emotional intensity.

The painting depicts the biblical hero David holding the severed head of Goliath, the Philistine giant whom he defeated in a famous battle as recounted in the First Book of Samuel in the Old Testament. This subject was a popular one during the Baroque period, symbolizing the triumph of good over evil and often serving as an allegory for personal or political victory.

In Vannini's rendition, David is shown as a young, handsome figure, gazing contemplatively at the head of his vanquished foe. The work is characterized by its vivid realism, with meticulous attention to the textures of skin and hair, and the stark contrast between the youthful innocence of David and the brutish features of Goliath. The use of light and shadow not only highlights the physical and emotional details of the scene but also imbues the painting with a sense of drama and narrative tension.

"David with the Head of Goliath" is considered an important work in Vannini's oeuvre, exemplifying the artistic themes and techniques prevalent in Florentine painting during the early 1600s. It contributes to the understanding of Baroque art and its reflection of the period's religious and cultural values. The painting is held in various collections and has been displayed in several notable museums, allowing for continued appreciation and study by art historians and the public alike.
