Bramantino's Noli me tangere features a rare detail: Christ is touching the forehead of the Magdalen with three fingers. Such act is a reference to the relic of the skull of Mary the Magdalen housed in Saint-Maximin-La-Sainte-Baume. Starting from Bramantino's fresco, this essay will discuss the Noli me tangere imagery in Italy in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries.
