Georges de La Tour – The Magdalen with the Smoking Flame (c. 1640) Baroque Mas. Georges De La Tour Timless Artworks
   
The Magdalen with the Smoking Flame (c. 1640) By Georges de La Tour is one of the most striking Baroque depictions of Mary Magdalene. Illuminated by a single candle, the painting symbolizes repentance, mortality, and spiritual awakening. De La Tour’s mastery of chiaroscuro — the dramatic contrast between light and shadow — enhances the emotional depth and meditative stillness of the scene, making it a timeless masterpiece of quiet introspection and divine reflection.
