Mary Magdalene (1614-1615) by Simon Vouet
Mary Magdalene is an oil on wood painting of Mary Magdalene by the French artist Simon Vouet, executed in 1614–1615. It is displayed in the Quirinal Palace in Rome.
It represents Mary Magdalene, recognizable by one of her iconographic attributes, the perfume glass, which alludes to the episode attributed to her in which she perfumed Jesus shortly before his execution.[1]
