St Mary Magdalen
oil
canvas
From the collection of Nationalmuseum
St Mary Magdalen is an oil by Unknown, held at Nationalmuseum.
This painting is a portrait of a woman. She is shown from the chest up, facing the viewer with her head turned slightly to the right. Her long, dark hair is pulled back and falls over her right shoulder. She wears a blue dress with a white collar and has a small, round object in her right hand. The woman's expression is calm and introspective. Her eyes are cast downward, and her eyebrows are slightly furrowed. The background of the painting is a muted gray-brown color. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the painting. The woman's face and hands are illuminated, while the rest of her body is in shadow. This technique adds to the overall sense of calm and serenity in the painting.
