Painting Description
Penitent Magdalen" is a celebrated painting by the Italian Baroque painter Felice Ficherelli, known as Il Riposo. Painted in the 17th century, the work is a compelling illustration of the repentance of Mary Magdalene, a prominent figure in Christian tradition. Drawing upon narratives of redemption and penance, Ficherelli portrays Mary Magdalene in tearful contemplation – a emblematic representation of the penitent sinner.
In this oil on canvas painting, Mary Magdalene is depicted with attributes traditionally associated with her. A skull, suggesting the transience of life, and a crucifix symbolizing penance and repentance, are prominently featured in the composition. Ficherelli's characteristic use of dramatic lighting, sharp contrasts, and rich colors can be observed in this work.
"The Penitent Magdalen" is considered one of Ficherelli's notable contributions to the tradition of Magdalene portraiture. While the exact date of creation and initial reception of the work are not firmly established, the painting's enduring relevance and remarkable artistic value continue to invite scholarly interest and public engagement.
The painting is currently part of a private collection. Despite this private ownership, "The Penitent Magdalen" continues to influence our understanding of Ficherelli's oeuvre and the broader landscape of 17th-century religious painting.
