"The Penitent Magdalen" is a renowned Baroque painting by the Italian artist Carlo Dolci, a prominent painter of the Florentine school known for his meticulous and highly polished style. Created in the 17th century, this artwork is one of several interpretations by Dolci of Mary Magdalene, a biblical figure who has been a subject of fascination and reverence in Christian art. The painting depicts Magdalene in a moment of contemplative repentance, a theme that was popular during the Counter-Reformation period, which sought to inspire piety and devotion through religious art.

Carlo Dolci's interpretation of Magdalene is characterized by his signature attention to detail, soft color palette, and the use of light to imbue the scene with a sense of spirituality and emotional depth. The subject is often portrayed with a tear-stained face, downcast eyes, and clasping a skull, which symbolizes the transience of life and the importance of penitence. The work's devotional quality is further enhanced by the inclusion of attributes such as a crucifix or a whip, representing Magdalene's conversion and penitent life following her encounter with Jesus Christ.

"The Penitent Magdalen" has been admired for its technical excellence and its ability to convey a profound sense of inner turmoil and redemption. The painting is a testament to Dolci's skill in rendering human emotion and his influence on the Baroque period's religious iconography. It remains an important piece in the oeuvre of Carlo Dolci and continues to be studied for its artistic and theological significance. The artwork is held in various collections and has been displayed in several prominent museums, reflecting its enduring appeal and status as a masterpiece of Baroque religious art.
