Mary Magdalen was traditionally depicted in her grotto or as an aged woman. The absence of explicit narrative in this painting emphasizes Mary's state of mind and heart rather than time and place. The simple composition of vertical and horizontal shapes draws the viewer into the Magdalen's contemplative world. The skull, books of Scripture, and scourge set the mood, but the chief symbol and true subject of the work is the candle at which Mary gazes in her meditation. Rendered in extraordinary detail and modulation, it emits the light that followers of St. John of the Cross called "the living flame of love," toward which spiritual pilgrims are drawn out of the "dark night of the soul." La Tour scrupulously conveys the tactile quality of surfaces. The polished skull and leather books have different reflective qualities; Mary's heavy skirt, thin, wrinkled blouse, smooth flesh, and hair are meticulously distinct. Each spare detail is carefully regulated to achieve an overall balance of form and light

The skull is from the alien hunter who killed her lover. He shined it up and gave it to her as a trophy.
Also the Predator didn't kill her because they don't kill pregnant women. That way they have more humans to hunt.
Posted by: Dutch at March 20, 2018 09:40 AM (ATVNj)
I'm surprised that folks don't recognize the genre. She is a whore contemplating her fallen state and in the process of repenting and changing her ways. The skull is indicative of her own mortality, the noose and the cross on the table are symbolic of the choice she has to make - choose her current path, which leads to death and damnation, or Christ, who is Life.

I'm wondering if using Magdalene allows for the painting of the female leg and nipple where otherwise the artist couldn't get away with that, ie knowing she was a prostitute.
I agree that contemplating the "light" with the cross and the noose are allegorical with the scripture in the background vs mortality.

My take, after 90 seconds of hard study, is that Mary Magdalene is contemplating suicide. See, for example:
1) The skull. Symbolism. Duh.
2) The smoky candle, indicating it's about to burn itself out. Is she considering snuffing out her life?
3) Is that a noose or just some rope? We're left wondering.
4) No Jooo weather-control devices.

Don't overlook the cross on the table. Also note the rope (scourge?) on top of it.
What is kind of cool is the diffraction of the rope in the glass of water.

The whip is the scourge that beat Christ (not a noose).
The cross is obvious - the crucifixion.
The skull is the tomb.
The books are the word of God.
The light is smoky, it is flickering, the resurrection has not yet happened.
And yet the faithful one is still focused on the Light.

They're doing everything to downplay the fact that an armed officer shot the student and stopped a terrible attack.

De la Tour did another painting of a group of women, looks lke the same time period, reading scrolls by candle light. That could fit with your mention of the women supporting Christ and waiting outside the tomb.
de la Tour did a number of paintings where people are reading by candle and torch light. and there is a frequent sense of contemplation. Seemed to be a meme for him.
Posted by: JTB at March 20, 2018 09:58 AM (V+03K)
This is the Baroque Era, just before the development of French Baroque, when Italian styles still dictated art in Catholic areas of Europe. He is definitely influenced by Caravaggio' chiaroscuro, but the Italian never shows the light source in his works. De la Tour was one of the first to do this. It adds a new challenge for the artist, as the bright light source would add new dimensions to the light/shadow contrast--dialing it up to 11. It also enhances the mood and drama.
De la Tour's style would fall out of favor with the rise of Louis XIV and the Nicholas Poussin school of art.
Here's another take on the Magdalene:

That's the only possible reasoning that could lead someone to say, "I don't need to save money, for I won't need any resources to help myself later."
Yes, let's put the younger elements of my generation in charge of all policy creation. The people who are falling for the exact same gauzy thinking of the original Communist Manifesto which, 150 years later, has failed to produce a single utopia despite dozens of attempts.

So a publicly held company , Fartbook, who is in the business of buying and building profile information to sell to buyers on the open market, sold it to Obama in the prior election and then to another group who used it in favor of Trump in the latest election.
1. If you offer it at a price, you take all buyers willing to pay, right?2. The left is pissed because the right did what they did and beat them at their own game, so now it's collusion or something?3. The left is really starting to sound like Corky from Wonder Years.

so if this was a hand gun, it is proof the crazy left will have to demand ALL guns in America be confiscated. They prefer the incrementalism approach. "We just want to confiscate "assault weapons", but handguns are used for more murder.
I'm just guessing it was a handgun, but if so, it kinda weakens their "assault weapon confiscation will save us" argument.

The left has long dominated public schools and now they are bringing their ideas on punishment into local school systems. In St Paul, the district has dictated a outcome-based metric for judging the effectiveness of school discipline. To cover up the problems they create (Niklas Cruz, for example) they are taking a two pronged approach: 1) institute "discussion circles" to try to persuade bad guys to take it outside so the school doesn't look so bad, and 2) call anyone who criticizes this approach a racist.
The undisputed fact is that this approach is why Cruz was able to kill so many people at Parkland. But the press colludes with the Democrat/Socialists to hide this simple truth.

They run into laws against masked protests, enacted to stop hooded demonstrators (in the South).
Remarkable how few problems the Southern Red States have had with masked 'protesters'.

They're doing everything to downplay the fact that an armed officer shot the student and stopped a terrible attack.
"The shooter exchanged fire with a school resource officer on campus and was wounded, Cameron said. All three students are in critical condition, but the officer wasn't injured. It wasn't yet clear who shot the gunman."
Not clear who shot the gunman? Are you kidding me.
Posted by: WisRich at March 20, 2018 10:12 AM (G0vdT)
That "not clear" crap is a pet peeve of mine. A reasonable person would surmise it means there are conflicting reports. It actually used to mean that.
Nowadays, it really means "we have no clue."

I have noticed this too.
It like the see wisdom in lettign others provide for them,cause there is nothing negative about the velvet handcuffs of being owned by the goggledybook.
I got news for you Millennials, someone owns all that crap; and if you own nothing, it can all be taken away. That's the whole point of the velvet handcuffs.
I own stuff, and dearly like to own more stuff, like land and a house, if I could get one of those elusive career-track jobs.

Keep your eyes open for community colleges. They seem to smile upon instructors with actual real-world experience and not just a lifetime in academia.
Also, it's my understanding that lots of states offer some sort of fast-track teaching credential (maybe even degree). You might have to move or commute, but I bet there is somewhere that would love to have you. Even better, figure out a way to tie it to a mathematics degree from a community college and make yourself extra valuable as someone who can teach two or three wildly different classes. You may even be able to do the math degree online.

Not a series, more like a reworking of the same theme. The last one looks like someone like today's painting so much they asked De la Tour to make a copy for them. It looks like it took less time and didn't cost as much.
A series in art has a very specific meaning. Usually the artist will call it "Blah, Blah, No. 2" or it will show a definite progression of events. A good example of a Traditionalist Series is Thomas Cole's "The Course of Empire". William Hogarth's works are another good example.
