The Death of Judas is a 1634 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The image depicts a scene of a man hanging from a tree branch, surrounded by a group of people in robes. The man's body is limp, and his head is tilted downward. The people around him appear to be in a state of distress or mourning. In the background, there is a building with a large archway, and a few trees are visible. The overall atmosphere of the image is one of sadness and tragedy. This painting is an example of the work of artist Jacques Callot, who was known for his etchings and engravings during the Baroque period.
Jacques Callot was a baroque printmaker and draftsman from the Duchy of Lorraine.
