New growth springing from a decaying tree stump is but one symbol of redemption in this rich depiction of Mary Magdalene, wrongly identified during the Middle Ages as the woman who had left a life of ill repute to follow her Christ. Influence by a trip to Italy, Dutch artist Jan van Scorel painted his Mary in the ornate clothing of a Venetian courtesan. The authentic stretched canvas replica painting captures the original work's texture, depth of color, and even its subtle brushstrokes, which are applied by hand exclusively for Design Toscano. Our replica European style, bright gold-toned, ribbed frame is cast in quality designer resin with an acanthus leaf and floret border that draws the eye toward the beautiful image. Small: 17"Wx15"H.
