Judith Beheading Holofernes by Artemisia Gentileschi

In Artemisia’s work, it is clear that Judith not only has arms strong enough to cut through Holofernes’ neck but also is willing to use that strength to get the job done. Caravaggio’s Judith, meanwhile, gracefully stretches out her arms, maintaining her distance from the rather unpleasant task, while her face assumes an expression of concern and distaste. Artemisia’s Judith and her servant, by contrast, show concentration and determination. Their faces take on the grim expressions of women who know what must be done no matter how unpleasant. I imagine Artemisia wore just such a face during her trial. Technically, she was not on trial. Agostino Tassi, an artist her father had hired to teach her perspective, stood accused of raping her. Artemisia, however, was the one who was tortured to see if her story would remain consistent. The authorities used thumbscrews, tied cords around her hands and pulled them tight, which would be agonizing for anyone to go through but for a painter held a special horror. Tassi was not tortured, though his testimony was so contradictory that the judge told him repeatedly to stop lying. Artemisia was also subjected to a public examination to determine whether she had in fact been a virgin before the rape.
