Painting Description
'''Cattura di Cristo''' (Italian for "The Capture of Christ") is a 17th-century oil painting by French Baroque painter Trophime Bigot, also known as the Master of the Candlelight. This work is one of Bigot's religious-themed paintings and depicts the biblical scene of the arrest of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, an event described in all four Gospels of the New Testament. The painting is notable for its dramatic use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and to convey the emotional intensity of the scene.
Trophime Bigot (circa 1579–1650) was active during the Baroque period, a time characterized by its grandeur, sensuous richness, and dramatic use of light and shadow. Although he spent most of his career in Italy, Bigot's work was also influential in his native France. His paintings often featured religious and genre scenes illuminated by a single light source, earning him the nickname "Master of the Candlelight."
The ''Cattura di Cristo'' is exemplary of Bigot's style, with its focus on the moment Judas Iscariot identifies Jesus to the soldiers by giving him a kiss, which is the signal for his arrest. The painting's composition is centered around the interaction between Jesus and Judas, while the other figures, including the soldiers and apostles, are shrouded in shadow, emphasizing the betrayal.

Bigot's ''Cattura di Cristo'' is an important work within the oeuvre of the artist and the Baroque period, reflecting the intense emotional and spiritual narratives that are characteristic of the era. Its depiction of light and shadow not only serves a symbolic purpose, illustrating the contrast between good and evil, but also demonstrates Bigot's skill in manipulating light to enhance the drama and realism of the scene.
