"Maddalena in Penitenza" (also known as "Penitent Magdalene") is a 17th-century oil painting by the Italian Baroque artist Felice Ficherelli, known as Il Riposo. The artwork depicts Mary Magdalene, a figure from the New Testament who, according to Christian tradition, repented her sins and became one of Jesus's most devoted followers. Ficherelli's portrayal of Magdalene in a state of penance is a common theme in religious art of the Baroque period, reflecting the era's emphasis on emotion, drama, and personal spirituality.

In "Maddalena in Penitenza," Ficherelli presents the saint in a moment of contemplative solitude, often characterized by her downcast eyes, somber expression, and the presence of symbolic elements such as a skull, which represents the transience of life and the inevitability of death. The painting is noted for its use of chiaroscuro, the strong contrast between light and dark, which serves to highlight the figure of Magdalene and convey the depth of her inner turmoil and spiritual awakening.

Felice Ficherelli (1605–1660), active mainly in Tuscany, was a prolific painter whose works were influenced by the likes of Caravaggio and his followers. His paintings often featured religious and mythological subjects, rendered with a keen attention to detail and a rich color palette. "Maddalena in Penitenza" is considered one of his significant contributions to religious art, encapsulating the emotional intensity and introspection characteristic of the Baroque movement.

The painting is part of the collection of the Museo Civico di Sansepolcro in Tuscany, Italy, where it remains an important example of Ficherelli's artistic legacy and a testament to the enduring appeal of the Magdalene as a subject in Christian art.
