"Saint Bartholomew; Saint Mary Magdalene" is a notable work of art by Luca Spinelli, also known as Luca da Reggio, an Italian painter of the Renaissance period. The painting is a diptych, a two-paneled piece of art, which depicts two significant figures from Christian tradition: Saint Bartholomew and Saint Mary Magdalene. Each saint is typically represented in their own panel, allowing for individual contemplation as well as a collective interpretation of the work.

Saint Bartholomew, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus, is often depicted in art after his martyrdom, holding the instruments of his flaying, which is a knife or a set of knives, symbolizing his sacrifice and steadfast faith. Saint Mary Magdalene, a follower of Jesus who is present in several key moments of the New Testament, is frequently shown with an alabaster jar, representing the ointment she used to anoint Jesus' feet, and sometimes depicted in a contemplative or penitent pose, reflecting her role in the story of Christ's resurrection.

Luca Spinelli, active in the 16th century, was known for his religious works and his contribution to the spread of Renaissance art in the region of Emilia-Romagna. His style is characterized by the use of vivid colors, attention to detail, and the incorporation of both classical and contemporary elements, which is evident in the "Saint Bartholomew; Saint Mary Magdalene" diptych.

The painting is significant for its artistic merit as well as its religious importance. It serves as an example of Renaissance art's capacity to convey spiritual narratives and the personal devotion of the saints. The work is also an illustration of the period's artistic techniques, such as the use of perspective and the careful rendering of fabrics and textures.

"Saint Bartholomew; Saint Mary Magdalene" by Luca Spinelli is a valuable piece for both art historians and those interested in religious iconography. It offers insight into the religious sentiment of the time and the ways in which art was used to inspire and educate the faithful. The diptych is a testament to Spinelli's skill and his role in the cultural milieu of the Italian Renaissance.
