"Zacharias Killed Between the Temple and the Altar" is a painting by the French artist James Tissot, known for his detailed and evocative biblical scenes. Tissot, who lived from 1836 to 1902, was renowned for his religious works, particularly his series illustrating the life of Christ and other biblical events. This painting is part of his extensive collection titled "The Life of Christ," which he created after a profound religious conversion in the late 19th century.

The artwork depicts the dramatic and tragic moment of the death of Zacharias, a figure mentioned in the Gospel of Matthew. According to the biblical account, Zacharias was killed between the temple and the altar, an event that symbolizes the rejection and persecution of prophets. Tissot's interpretation captures the intensity and emotion of the scene, with a focus on the architectural elements of the temple and the expressions of the figures involved.

Tissot's style is characterized by meticulous attention to detail, a result of his extensive travels to the Middle East, where he studied the landscapes, architecture, and clothing to ensure historical accuracy in his depictions. His use of watercolor in this series allowed for a delicate yet vivid portrayal of biblical narratives, bringing them to life for contemporary audiences.

The painting reflects Tissot's deep engagement with religious themes and his ability to convey complex spiritual and emotional narratives through art. His works have been praised for their narrative clarity and the ability to evoke a sense of time and place, making biblical stories accessible and relatable to viewers.

"Zacharias Killed Between the Temple and the Altar" is part of the collection housed at the Brooklyn Museum, which acquired Tissot's "The Life of Christ" series in 1900. The series remains a significant contribution to religious art, showcasing Tissot's unique blend of artistic skill and spiritual exploration.
