"Noli Me Tangere" is a fresco by the Italian Renaissance master Giotto di Bondone, located in the Scrovegni Chapel (Cappella degli Scrovegni) in Padua, Veneto, Italy. The fresco is part of a larger cycle painted by Giotto in the chapel, which is widely considered to be one of his masterpieces and a seminal work of the early Renaissance. The cycle, completed around 1305, depicts various scenes from the life of the Virgin Mary and the life of Christ.

The term "Noli Me Tangere" is Latin for "Touch Me Not" or "Do Not Cling to Me," and the fresco depicts the biblical scene from the Gospel of John (20:17) where the resurrected Jesus appears to Mary Magdalene. In this scene, Jesus has just emerged from the tomb and is met by Mary Magdalene, who initially mistakes him for the gardener. Upon recognizing him, she reaches out, but Jesus admonishes her not to touch him, explaining that he has not yet ascended to the Father.

Giotto's interpretation of "Noli Me Tangere" is celebrated for its emotional depth and humanism, marking a departure from the stylized and symbolic art of the Byzantine tradition that preceded the Renaissance. The fresco is noted for its use of chiaroscuro to create volume and for the realistic depiction of the figures' expressions and gestures. Giotto's work in the Scrovegni Chapel laid the groundwork for the development of Renaissance art and influenced countless artists who followed.

The Scrovegni Chapel and its frescoes were restored in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, allowing visitors and scholars to appreciate Giotto's artistry in greater detail. The "Noli Me Tangere" fresco remains a subject of study for its artistic significance and its role in the evolution of Western art.
