''Noli Me Tangere'' is a Baroque painting by Italian artist Sebastiano Conca, created in the early 18th century. The title, which translates to "Touch Me Not" or "Do Not Touch Me," refers to the biblical scene from the Gospel of John (20:17) where the resurrected Jesus Christ appears to Mary Magdalene. In this moment, Christ instructs her not to touch him, as he has not yet ascended to the Father. This subject has been a popular theme in Christian art, symbolizing the recognition of Christ's resurrection and the importance of faith over physical touch.

Sebastiano Conca, born in 1680 in Gaeta and active during the late Baroque period, was known for his dynamic compositions and vibrant use of color, which are evident in this work. He trained in Naples and later moved to Rome, where he became well-regarded for his religious and mythological scenes. Conca's ''Noli Me Tangere'' is a testament to his ability to convey complex theological ideas through emotive figures and dramatic lighting.

The painting depicts the encounter between Christ and Mary Magdalene with a focus on the emotional intensity of the moment. Christ is often shown in a gardener's guise, referencing Mary Magdalene's initial mistaking him for the gardener upon seeing him after his resurrection. The work is characterized by its rich color palette and the use of light to highlight the figures, a technique that enhances the spiritual aura of the scene.

While the exact dimensions and current location of Conca's ''Noli Me Tangere'' may not be specified, works of this theme by the artist are part of the collections of various art institutions, reflecting the enduring interest in this poignant biblical episode. Conca's interpretation of ''Noli Me Tangere'' contributes to the broader artistic tradition of exploring the narrative of Christ's resurrection and its profound impact on Christian belief.
