This drawing by Andrea del Verrocchio, a prominent Florentine sculptor and painter, depicts Mary Magdalene holding a jar of ointment. Created between 1435 and 1494, the work is a detailed study of the figure, showcasing Verrocchio's mastery of line and form. The composition features a single figure, rendered in delicate strokes, emphasizing the soft contours of Magdalene's drapery and her contemplative expression. "Maria Magdalene med salvekrukken. Knæfigur" is a striking example of Verrocchio's ability to convey emotional depth through subtle details, making it a compelling and thought-provoking piece.
