The Crucifixion of Saint Wilgefortis is a c. 1497 triptych by the Early Netherlandish painter Hieronymus Bosch. The subject of the painting has been uncertain, and it has also been known as the Triptych of the Crucified Martyr, or The Crucifixion of Saint Julia, but is now believed to depict Saint Wilgefortis (also known as St Uncumber or St Liberata).

Like many Bosch paintings, the date of this work was long disputed, until dendrochronological analysis assigned it to around 1497.[1] It was held in the Palazzo Ducale in Venice, and now in the collection of the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice.
