About the piece
Created around 1616 by Giovanni Lanfranco, this oil painting captures the Assumption of Mary Magdalene with dynamic Baroque energy. The central figure is enveloped in celestial light and supported by playful cherubs, creating a striking contrast with the shadowed, tranquil landscape below. This work exemplifies the artist's masterful handling of light and atmospheric depth, typical of the Museo di Capodimonte collection.
