This beauty is notable for her distinctly non-churchy appearance - loose, wavy hair; form-fitting clothing; exposed upper arms (the university's church has since painted sleeves on her dress). She's more Botticelli than Magdalene. Our guide suggested her appearance is meant to represent the Latin American woman. We found it interesting the university has chosen to display her in a back room behind the chapel.
