"The Punishment of Korah and the Stoning of Moses and Aaron (detail 1) 1481-82" is a fresco by the renowned Italian painter Sandro Botticelli. This work is part of a series of frescoes painted by Botticelli and other artists on the walls of the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City. Commissioned by Pope Sixtus IV, these frescoes depict events from the Old Testament and were intended to parallel the life of Moses with that of Christ, as well as to showcase the continuity between the Old Covenant and the New Covenant.

Botticelli's contribution to the Sistine Chapel includes several panels, with "The Punishment of Korah" being one of the most significant. The fresco illustrates the biblical episode from the Book of Numbers (Chapter 16), where Korah, a Levite, along with Dathan, Abiram, and 250 other Israelites, challenge the authority of Moses and Aaron. In response to this rebellion, God opens the earth to swallow the insurgents, signifying divine retribution and the reaffirmation of Moses as His chosen leader.

The fresco is notable for its dramatic representation of the event, with Botticelli's mastery of movement and expression capturing the chaos and terror of the moment. The figures of Moses and Aaron are depicted in the act of intercession, while the rebels are shown being consumed by the earth. The work is a testament to Botticelli's skill in conveying narrative and emotion through art, and it reflects the religious and political themes that were prevalent in the Renaissance period.

Botticelli's frescoes in the Sistine Chapel are considered some of his most important religious works and contribute to the overall iconographic program of the chapel, which was designed to reinforce the authority of the papacy. "The Punishment of Korah and the Stoning of Moses and Aaron (detail 1)" remains a significant example of Botticelli's contribution to Renaissance art and his ability to interpret complex biblical stories through the medium of fresco painting.
