De H. Maria Magdalena met zalfpot en bloemen is a 1532 oil by Unknown, a Mannerism work, held at Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium.
This painting features a woman seated at a table, wearing a red dress with gold trim and a blue sleeve. She has a gold headband and holds a small object in her right hand. The table has a white top and a gold object on it. The woman's attire and the gold objects suggest a sense of luxury and wealth. The painting's style and the woman's clothing indicate that it may be from the Renaissance period. The level of detail and realism in the painting suggests that the artist was skilled in techniques such as chiaroscuro and glazing.
