"Christ Appearing to the Magdalen - Noli Me Tangere" is a notable engraving by the German artist Martin Schongauer, who was active during the late 15th century. This work, catalogued as Lehr 15 and Bartsch 26, is part of Schongauer's oeuvre that significantly contributed to the development of the engraving technique in Northern Europe. The title "Noli Me Tangere," Latin for "Touch Me Not," refers to the biblical scene depicted in the Gospel of John (20:17), where the resurrected Jesus appears to Mary Magdalene and speaks these words to her, indicating that he has not yet ascended to the Father.

In Schongauer's rendition, the emotional intensity of the encounter between Christ and Mary Magdalene is captured with exquisite detail and fine line work, characteristic of the artist's style. The composition typically shows Mary Magdalene recognizing Jesus after initially mistaking him for a gardener. Schongauer's mastery in conveying textures, from the foliage in the garden to the drapery of the garments, is evident in this piece.

The engraving is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its influence on subsequent generations of artists. Schongauer's prints were widely circulated and admired, serving as a source of inspiration for young artists, including the great Albrecht Dürer, who made a pilgrimage to Colmar to study Schongauer's work.

"Christ Appearing to the Magdalen - Noli Me Tangere" is an important example of Northern Renaissance art and reflects the period's interest in human emotion, religious themes, and the natural world. It remains an essential work for understanding the progression of engraving as an art form and the dissemination of visual culture during the Renaissance.
