EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to 1676 London, where Abraham Bloteling masterfully captured the essence of Mary Magdalene, the penitent harlot. Measuring at a delicate size of 175mm in height and 134mm in width, this paper print showcases the intricate details that make it truly remarkable. In this portrayal, Mary Magdalene is depicted with various possible attributes that symbolize her story. A book or scroll signifies her wisdom and knowledge gained through repentance. The crown represents her eventual redemption and elevation to a higher spiritual status. The crown of thorns serves as a reminder of Christ's sacrifice and her role in his crucifixion. A jar of ointment alludes to the biblical account where she anointed Jesus' feet with expensive perfume as an act of devotion. A mirror reflects upon her self-reflection and transformation from a sinner to a saintly figure. A musical instrument hints at her ability to express herself through music during moments of introspection. Other notable attributes include a palm-branch symbolizing victory over sin, a rosary representing prayerful contemplation, and a scourge signifying penance for past transgressions. Bloteling's skillful execution captures both the vulnerability and strength within Mary Magdalene's character, leaving viewers captivated by her journey towards redemption. This print offers not only aesthetic pleasure but also invites deeper reflection on themes such as forgiveness, transformation, and faith
