Légende
Mary Magdalene Borne Aloft; Gualenghi-d'Este Hours, about 1469. Additional Info:While angels carry her toward heaven, Mary Magdalene prays, naked save for the covering of her abundant hair. According to The Golden Legend, a popular medieval compilation of saints' lives, the former sinner repented of her ways and retired to the wilderness outside of Marseilles in France after Jesus' Crucifixion. While living as a hermit there, "every day at the seven canonical hours she was carried aloft by angels and with her bodily ears heard the glorious chants of the celestial hosts."
