Christ and the Adulteress, also called Christ and the Woman Taken in Adultery, and The Adulteress Brought before Christ, is an oil painting usually attributed to Titian and painted early in his career, about 1510. It hangs in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow.^[1]

Attribution

The picture has been variously attributed to Bonifacio, Cariani, Romanino, Sebastiano del Piombo, Domenico Campagnola, Domenico Mancini, Giorgione, and Titian. The subject, too, has been contested; Johannes Wilde and others argued in favour of the Old Testament story of Susanna and Daniel.^[2] Most scholars now accept the subject of the painting as the New Testament story of Jesus and the woman taken in adultery,^[3] and attribute the painting to Titian.^[4]
