"Torture of the Jew (detail 1)" is a fresco segment painted by the Early Renaissance Italian artist Piero della Francesca as part of a larger series of frescoes depicting the Legend of the True Cross in the Basilica of San Francesco in Arezzo, Italy. Created between the 1450s and 1460s, this particular detail is part of the fresco that illustrates the story of the discovery of the True Cross, the cross upon which Jesus was crucified, as per Christian tradition.

The fresco series is renowned for its use of perspective and Piero della Francesca's mastery in conveying complex narratives through his art. "Torture of the Jew" specifically refers to a scene in which a Jew is being tortured to reveal the location of the True Cross, which had been buried and lost over time. This narrative is based on the Golden Legend, a collection of hagiographies by Jacobus de Voragine that was widely popular during the Middle Ages.

Piero della Francesca's work is characterized by its serene human figures and the use of geometric shapes and light to create a sense of volume and space. The "Torture of the Jew" detail showcases the artist's skill in depicting human emotion and the dramatic intensity of the scene, while maintaining a sense of harmony and balance within the composition.

The frescoes in the Basilica of San Francesco are considered one of Piero della Francesca's masterpieces and are a significant example of Renaissance art. They have been studied extensively for their artistic and historical value and are a key attraction for visitors to Arezzo. The "Torture of the Jew" detail, while a less celebrated part of the series, contributes to the overall narrative and thematic complexity of Piero della Francesca's depiction of the Legend of the True Cross.
