Painting Description
''Noli me tangere'' is a Baroque painting by Flemish artist Gaspar de Crayer, depicting the biblical scene from the Gospel of John where the resurrected Jesus says to Mary Magdalene, "Touch me not" (Latin: Noli me tangere), as she recognizes him after his resurrection. This theme has been a popular subject in Christian art, symbolizing the recognition of the spiritual and resurrected Christ, rather than the physical and earthly being.
Gaspar de Crayer (1584–1669) was a contemporary of Peter Paul Rubens and Anthony van Dyck and was known for his religious paintings, altarpieces, and portraits. His work is characterized by its dynamic composition, vivid emotion, and skilled use of color. De Crayer's rendition of ''Noli me tangere'' is a testament to his mastery of Baroque sensibilities, with a dramatic interplay of light and shadow, and a focus on the emotional intensity of the encounter between Mary Magdalene and Christ.
The painting is significant for its artistic qualities as well as its devotional impact. It is an example of de Crayer's ability to convey complex theological ideas through art. The exact dimensions, date of creation, and current location of this specific ''Noli me tangere'' by Gaspar de Crayer are not provided, which may be due to the fact that de Crayer's works are numerous and not all are equally documented. However, his paintings are held in high esteem and can be found in various museums, churches, and private collections.
As an artist who enjoyed considerable success and held prestigious positions, including court painter to the Governor of the Spanish Netherlands, de Crayer's works, including his interpretation of ''Noli me tangere'', contribute to the understanding of the Baroque period in Flemish art and the broader European artistic landscape of the 17th century.
