About the piece
Painted by Neapolitan master Bernardo Cavallino around 1650, this striking oil on canvas captures Judith in a moment of quiet reflection following her triumph. The work is characterized by the rich, luminous colors of her garment—vivid ochre and deep lapis blue—and the intense chiaroscuro typical of the Baroque period, which focuses attention on her expressive face and the tragic remains of Holofernes.
