"La Cattura di Cristo" (The Capture of Christ) is a notable Baroque-era painting by French artist Trophime Bigot, also known as the Master of the Candlelight. Bigot was active during the early 17th century and is renowned for his dramatic use of chiaroscuro and tenebrism, a style that involves stark contrasts between light and dark, often with a spotlight effect. This painting is a prime example of his expertise in creating a theatrical atmosphere through the interplay of light and shadow.

The artwork depicts the biblical scene of Jesus Christ's arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane, a pivotal moment that precedes his trial and crucifixion. It is a subject that has been widely represented in Christian art, capturing the tension and emotion of the betrayal by Judas Iscariot. In Bigot's rendition, the figures are illuminated by a single light source, creating a sense of immediacy and intimacy within the scene. The use of light not only highlights the drama but also serves to guide the viewer's eye to the central action and the expressions of the characters involved.

"La Cattura di Cristo" is characterized by its realistic depiction of the human form and the palpable psychological intensity conveyed through the figures' gestures and facial expressions. Bigot's skillful handling of the paint and his attention to detail contribute to the overall impact of the work, making it a significant piece within the oeuvre of 17th-century religious paintings.

The painting is an important work for understanding the influence of Caravaggio on European artists, as Bigot was one of many who adopted the Caravaggesque style, which was defined by naturalism and the dramatic use of light. "La Cattura di Cristo" not only reflects Bigot's mastery of this style but also his individual approach to storytelling through art.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not definitively known, it is generally attributed to Bigot's mature period. The work is held in high esteem by art historians and is considered a significant contribution to the Baroque period's exploration of religious themes. It is an exemplary piece that demonstrates the enduring power of visual art to convey complex narratives and evoke emotional responses.
