"Christ In The House Of Simon," by the Italian Baroque artist Sebastiano Ricci (1659–1734), depicts the biblical scene of Mary Magdalene washing the feet of Jesus. The painting captures the dramatic moment as Mary kneels before Christ while other figures look on. Ricci's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and drama, typical of the Baroque style. The setting of the painting, featuring an elaborate architectural backdrop, adds to the grandeur of the scene. This scene is often depicted in religious art and represents a moment of grace and forgiveness.
