Penitent Magdalene is a 1576–1578 painting by El Greco depicting #MaryMagdalene, produced during his first period in Toledo. It is now in the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest.
It is the feast day of #MaryMagdalene, shown here in a painting by Renaissance artist #ElisabettaSirani. She used to be "the penitent Magdalene", but Pope Francis, taking into account that she was the first person to see the risen Christ, has elevated her status in the Church.
