Jan Sanders van Hemessen, 1580 - Judith - fine art print

What does the website of the Art Institute Chicago state about this artwork created by Jan Sanders van Hemessen? (© Copyright - by Art Institute Chicago - Art Institute Chicago)

Judith was considered one of the most heroic women of the Old Testament. According to the biblical story, when her city was besieged by the Assyrian army, the beautiful young widow gained access to the quarters of the general Holofernes. After winning his confidence and getting him drunk, she took his sword and cut off his head, thereby saving the Jewish people. Although Judith was often shown richly and exotically clothed, Jan Sanders van Hemessen chose to present her as a monumental nude, aggressively brandishing her sword even after severing Holofernes’s head.
