Description: This beautiful oil painting on panel depicts the famous biblical figure of Mary Magdalene. Created in the early 19th century, this charming yet profound Mexican oil painting is a true masterpiece of religious art. With her hands, she tightly grasps metal chains, a symbol of mortification and repentance. Mary usually includes the customary emblems of the contemplative life: a book, crucifix, a scourge, a skull, and eyes fixed on Heaven or the crucifix. Like the earlier images of extravagant sorrow at the foot of the cross, they often seem to assume that the extreme passion that once led Mary Magdalene to be a "sinner" continued to characterize her in her reformation.then the discourse that the Church sought to transmit to the worshippers and establishes the figure of the saint as the best example of the search for the forgiveness of sins. Found in Puebla, Mexico in the late '80s, and later restored in the U.S.
