Mary Magdalena by Carlo Crivelli (c. 1430-1495), Ascoll Piceno, ca. 1480, tempera on panel. With Carlo Crivelli, the so-called 'International Gothic' style experienced its final flowering in Italy. This perfectly preserved panel was painted towards the end of his career. It served as the altarpiece of a provincial church dedicated to the Magdalene. Crivelli's refined style is apparent here in the overly elegant arrangement of the hands and fingers and in the saint's face.
