Giotto, St. Mary Magdalene Washes the Feet of Jesus

1309
Fresco
Basilica of St. Francis, Assisi, Italy

This panel is part of the Mary Magdalene cycle in the lower level of the church. It is most likely Giotto's work, but for questions about the attribution see Brooke, 433. For the conflation of the anointing with the Last Supper and of Mary Magdalene with Mary the sister of Lazarus see my comments on this mosaic in Sicily.
