"The Centurion Beseeching Jesus on Behalf of His Servant" is a biblical-themed painting by the Scottish artist William Brassey Hole (1846–1917). Known for his religious works and illustrations of the Bible, Hole's painting captures the moment from the New Testament where a Roman centurion shows great faith in Jesus Christ's healing powers. The scene, derived from the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 8:5–13) and paralleled in Luke (Luke 7:1–10), depicts the centurion's plea for Jesus to heal his gravely ill servant without even visiting his home, expressing his belief that Jesus's word alone would be sufficient for the miracle.

William Brassey Hole, primarily recognized for his frescoes and watercolors, was a prominent figure in the late Victorian era, contributing to the visual interpretation of religious and historical narratives. His work, including "The Centurion Beseeching Jesus on Behalf of His Servant," is characterized by its detailed figures, expressive emotion, and the use of light to convey the divine presence of Jesus.

While the exact date of this painting's creation is not well-documented, it is consistent with Hole's artistic period when he was actively producing religious scenes. The painting is significant for its portrayal of faith and humility, themes that were central to Christian art of the period and resonated with Victorian audiences. Hole's interpretation of the biblical story emphasizes the interaction between the divine and the mortal, highlighting the centurion's recognition of authority and faith in a higher power.

As with many of Hole's works, this painting contributes to the rich tradition of religious art, offering a visual companion to the biblical text and serving as a tool for religious education and contemplation. The artwork's current location, provenance, and exhibition history, however, are not well-documented in public records, which limits a more comprehensive understanding of its impact and reception over time.
