Christ Appearing to Mary Magdalene

Französische Grafik 1285–1700, vers 1500

The image features two figures in an outdoor setting. One person is kneeling, facing right, with long hair partly covered by a veil or headscarf, wearing a long robe with a cloak, holding a small jar. The other person stands facing left, one arm slightly extended towards the kneeling figure, with long hair and a beard, wearing a robe that exposes the chest. A tree separates them, with lush foliage at the top. Structures resembling buildings or towers can be seen in the background. At the bottom, there is a band of text.
