3Judith and Holofernes by Artemisia Gentileschi

Artemisia Gentileschi’s “Judith and Holofernes” is a powerful portrayal of the biblical heroine Judith beheading the Assyrian general Holofernes.

The painting’s intensity and the strength of Judith’s character reflect Gentileschi’s own resilience as a female artist in a male-dominated era.
