Pablo de Rojas (Alcalá la Real, 1549 – Granada, 1611) Attributed to

Descriptio Polychrome wood, Dimensions: 108 x 46 x 42 cm. The sculpture depicts Mary Magdalene in a penitent attitude, carrying the cross in her right hand and with her face raised in a gesture of intense devotion. The highly expressive facial features and long, wavy hair reflect the mastery of the carving, while the gilded polychrome with plant motifs on the dress underlines the early Baroque sumptuousness. The piece, attributed to Pablo de Rojas, a master of the Granada school of the late 16th century, is part of the Counter-Reformation tradition that sought to move the faithful through the emotional power of sacred images. Its historical and stylistic relevance lies in its technical virtuosity and the spiritual intensity it conveys.
