About the Item
Penitent Magdalene
Italian painter of the 17th century
Oil on copper in gilt frame
Size: 22x17 cm (33x28 cm including frame)
Mary Magdalene is the repentant sinner who washed Jesus' feet in the house of Simon the Pharisee. According to a Provençal hagiographic tradition Magdalene set out with her brothers to evangelize the south of France. He then spent the last 30 years of his life as a hermit, fasting and performing acts of atonement. Since the Middle Ages and especially after the Counter-Reformation, she has been the prototype of the penitent. Because of her dual nature as a sinner and a redeemed woman, Magdalene is, because of her humanity, one of the most revered saints in Christianity. Her unfailing attribute is the ointment jar, in her hand or at her feet; she normally has long red hair loose over her shoulders. She is depicted mainly at the mouth of a cave, wearing tattered clothes, a cloak at her feet. Other specific attributes include the skull, crucifix, a whip, crown of thorns, and tear-filled eyes. She can also be depicted meditating with a book, or in ecstasy, having a vision of the bliss of heaven or during her elevation to heaven.
