Magdalene washing the feet of Christ in the House of Simon - Leonard Bramer

Oil on copper.

We'd like to thank dr. Guido Jansen for his attribution.

On the backside a map of Holland (the painter reused an etching plate)

Bramer was known for his genre, religious and history paintings. He is noted for his nocturnal scenes, usage of exotic details, costume and setting. He stayed away from typical Dutch themes such as landscapes, still lifes, portraits and genre pieces and he rarely painted Italianate pastoral scenes popular with the Utrecht Caravaggisti.
