EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Donatello's masterpiece, "Mary Magdalene" a sculpture created between 1453 and 1455. Crafted from gilt wood, this stunning piece resides in the Museo dell Opera del Duomo in Florence, Italy. The photograph, taken by Nicolo Orsi Battaglini, beautifully captures the essence of this iconic Renaissance artwork. The image portrays Mary Magdalene as she engages in deep prayer and contemplation. Her face is marked with lines of wisdom and experience, reflecting her journey through life. Clad in camel hair garments, she exudes an aura of humility and devotion. Donatello's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this sculpture. From the delicate folds of her clothing to the intricate carving on the wooden surface, his skill brings Mary Magdalene to life before our eyes. Originally located in the baptistery, this statue has stood the test of time as a testament to Donatello's mastery during the Quattrocento period. Marie Madeleine appears gaunt and haggardly but radiates a sense of inner strength that resonates with viewers even today. As we gaze upon this remarkable work captured by Nicolo Orsi Battaglini's lens, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its historical significance within Italian art history. This print allows us to appreciate Donatello's genius while immersing ourselves in Mary Magdalene's pensive presence for years
