Bartolomeo uses the device of the vase on the foreground parapet to prompt an association with Mary Magdalene, the saint believed to have anointed Christ\u2019s feet. The rich embroideries and jewelry may refer to New Testament descriptions of Mary Magdalene as well as to the actual sitter\u2019s status as a woman of wealth, while her frank, serious gaze suggests the piety of the saint, the lady\u2019s likely namesake.Object metadata can change over time, please check the Brooklyn Museum object record for the latest information.
