    Noli Me Tangere - "Do not touch me".

    "Noli Me Tangere is a large sculptural group located in the Alaleona Chapel of the church of Santi Domenico e Sisto in Rome. The chapel’s architectural framework was designed by the Italian artist Gianlorenzo Bernini, known as Le Bernin, and the sculpture itself was also designed by him. It shows Jesus responding to Mary Magdalene with the words “Do not touch me” when she recognizes him after his resurrection. The work was executed by Bernini’s pupil Antonio Raggi, probably between 1649 and 1652."
