This artwork, "Circumcision", by the Florentine painter Mariotto Albertinelli (1474-1515), depicts the biblical event of Jesus' circumcision, a central event in Jewish tradition. The painting features a group of figures, including the Virgin Mary, Joseph, and an angel, in a realistic setting. The figures' postures and gestures express the solemnity of the occasion, while the artist's attention to detail and vibrant colors further enhance the scene. The work is a prime example of early Renaissance art, showcasing the period's interest in realism and human expression.
