Donatello Mary Magdelene. c. 1452.jpg

The primary view of Donatello's Mary Magdelene shows her clothed in her long hair after she gave up material things. A close examination of the wood shows the traces of gilding that the artist applied to the wood. The carved wood sculpture stands on a plinth in the middle of a room in the Museo del Duomo, with walls lined with other religious artifacts that are related to the Cathedral.
