ジュリオ・チェザーレ・プロカッチーニによる稀有かつ重要な絵画。伝説のユディトがホロフェルネスの首を斬る場面を描いた本作は、カラヴァッジョやアルテミジア・ジェンティレスキからケヒンデ・ワイリー、ロバート・ロンゴに至るまで、数多くの芸術家を魅了してきた主題である。劇的な聖書の一場面は、印象的な明暗法で表現され、プロカッチーニの光と感情の掌握、そして美術史において最も永続的なテーマの一つである正義と勝利への取り組みを体現している。


 


本作品は卓越した来歴を有する。ジェノヴァ随一の収集家ジョヴァンニ・カルロ・ドリア(レオナルド・ダ・ヴィンチ、ティツィアーノ、ヴァン・ダイクらの作品を所蔵)の委嘱により制作され、約300年にわたりドリア家コレクションに所蔵されていた。作家の作品総覧(カタログ・レゾネ)に記載され、豊富な文献史料が存在する。


 


プロカッチーニの類似構図作品は、ワシントンD.C.のナショナル・ギャラリー・オブ・アートやサンクトペテルブルクのエルミタージュ美術館など主要美術館所蔵品に見られる。本作品は、美術史的意義と卓越した来歴の両面で際立つ、美術館級作品を入手する稀有な機会である。
