This bronze medal, "The Magdalen", was created by the Italian artist Caradosso Foppa in the late 15th or early 16th century. The work depicts Mary Magdalene, a prominent figure in the Christian faith, holding an alabaster jar, a traditional symbol of her devotion and repentance. The detailed engraving and the surrounding decorative frame contribute to the medal's intricate aesthetic, making it a fine example of Renaissance-era craftsmanship.
