Elevazione della Maddalena was created in 1522-1524 by Marco d'Oggiono (1470-1540), Italian Renaissance painter and a chief pupil of Leonardo da Vinci.
The painting, measuring cm 146x103, is part of the collection of the Pinacoteca Brera, Milano.
The artwork, on a stylistic level is noted for, other than Leonardo’s influences, also the peaceful sweetness of Raphael and the sensuality of Correggio, represents Saint Mary Magdalene elevated to heaven by a multitude of angels.
