	Judith and Holofernes by DONATELLO
		The difficult bronze sculpture of Judith and Holofernes was made by Donatello for the Signoria of Florence "...
		This is an excellent and accomplished work in which, by the appearance of Judith and the simplicity of her garments, Donatello reveals to the onlooker the woman s hidden courage and the inner strength she derives from God.
		Similarly, one can see the effect of wine and sleep in the expression of Holofernes and the presence of death in his limbs which, as his soul has departed, are cold and limp.

		Judith fell upon her face, and put ashes upon her head, and uncovered the sackcloth wherewith she was clothed; and about the time that the incense of that evening was offered in Jerusalem in the house of the Lord Judith cried with a loud voice, and said,

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Book of Judith
		With regard to the Septuagint version of the Book of Judith it should be noted that it has come down to us in two recensions: Codex B or Vaticanus on the one hand, and Codex Alexandrinus with Codex Sinaiticus on the other.
		Judith is no mythical personage, she and her heroic deed lived in the memory of the people; but the difficulties enumerated above seem to show that the story as we now have it was committed to writing at a period long subsequent to the facts.
		Thus Holofernes, Bethulia, and Achior, all disappear; there is a very natural explanation of the purification in xii, 7; and, most noticeable of all, the enemy is no longer an Assyrian, but Seleucus, and his attack is on Jerusalem, not on Bethulia.

	JUDITH, NRSV APOCRYPHA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-12)
		Judith, a Jewish widow, so beguiles Holofernes, the invincible head of the Assyrian army, and all his servants and soldiers that she is able to assassinate him in the middle of his camp and sneak away without being caught.
		The figure of Judith and her mode of operation have been variously compared to the biblical characters of Jael and Deborah (Judg 4.4-5.31), Moses, Esther, Abraham, Delilah (Judg 16), and Woman Wisdom (Prov 8).
		Judith's lies are often interpreted as wisdom, and the success of her mission is achieved by means of cosmetic adornment.

	Judith Beheading Holofernes by CARAVAGGIO
		A whole book in the Bible is devoted to Judith, because as a woman she embodies the power of the people of Israel to defeat the enemy, though superior in numbers, by means of cunning and courage.
		In contrast to the elegant and distant beauty of the vexed Judith, the ferocity of the scene is concentrated in the inhuman scream and the body spasm of the giant Holofernes.
		The upturned eyes of Holofernes indicate that he is not alive any more, yet signs of life still persist in the screaming mouth, the contracting body and the hand that still grips at the bed.

		The weight of the scene is distributed rather evenly, as the solid body of Holofernes and his bed are on the left, and the figures of Judith and her maid are to the right.
		Both Judith and her maid are reaching to the center as well, as the struggle to hold down and behead Holofernes.
		Here Judith is a solid figure-not the waifish girl of Caravaggio's work-and is so "engaged" in the act, that she actually climbs onto the bed with the struggling Holofernes.

		Holofernes was greatly pleased with her, and drank a great quantity of wine, much more than he had ever drunk in any one day since he was born.

		The Book of Judith is a tract for difficult times; the reader, it was hoped, would take to heart the lesson that God was still the Master of history, who could save Israel from her enemies.

		The eye is initially drawn to Judith, bathed in light, yet Holofernes and Judith's handmaiden, the handmaiden pictured emerging from darkness, are equally important figures.
		Holofernes lies upon his bed, clutching at the sheets with his left hand and, unlike some artistic interpretations, Holofernes is not being held down by the two women.
		The painting originally saw Judith bare breasted (perhaps just emerged from the victim's bed) and though later covered by a somewhat transparent blouse, the figure of Judith is not the classic heroine but a woman slightly frustrated by the task that she performs.

	Floridian: Brushed by drama
		Orazio Gentileschi's Judith, painted in Rome in about 1610, is dramatic, too, one could say even theatrical, in capturing a telling moment in an individual's life.
		In this painting, Judith cradles Holofernes' head in a basket, helped by her maid, dressed in rich garments and set against a fl, featureless background, as if her act has forever separated her from the normal world.
		Compare this Judith, who looks positively 20th century in her ambivalence, to the beautiful but insipid version interpreted by Fede Galizia or the studied calculation of Francesco Cairo's Judith, both of the same era and across the museum courtyard in the Ringling's permanent collection.

		[16] Then Judith came in and lay down, and Holofernes' heart was ravished with her and he was moved with great desire to possess her; for he had been waiting for an opportunity to deceive her, ever since the day he first saw her.

		They gave Judith the tent of Holofernes and all his silver dishes and his beds and his bowls and all his furniture; and she took them and loaded her mule and hitched up her carts and piled the things on them.

	Untitled Document
		Caravaggio's and Gentileschi's oil paintings represent the Judith theme as a dramatic narrative, which is an artistic style that was reintroduced to the Baroque era by Caravaggio.
		Gentileschi considered the character of Judith a spiritual model from which she drew personal courage and liberation.3 At the age of seventeen, Gentileschi was raped by Agostino Tassi, a painter with whom she studied.
		Caravaggio represents Judith as a late maniera beauty which is contrasted with the elderly, decrepit Alba, who in turn is set against the masculine strength of Holofernes, a symbol of patriarchal society.

	Judith Beheading Holofernes by GENTILESCHI, Artemisia
		As with much of Artemisia Gentileschi's work, scholars have tried to explain the hair-raising Judith Beheading Holofernes as a personal reaction to her 'date-rape' trial of 1612, but, in truth, her point of departure was far more visual than psychological.
		Elsheimer's small copper may have influenced the position of Holofernes' body and legs, although it should be noted that Artemisia's canvas has been cut down on the left and his legs are now missing.
		It has been suggested that Artemisia's Judith Beheading Holofernes (Galleria degli Uffizi, Florence) was essentially a fancy-dress copy of her father's earlier work and not an independent rethinking of the Naples composition.
