Do Not Touch Me by Titian Playing Cards Affiliate icon

This design features a painting by the Italian Renaissance painter Titian (1488–1576), who is often considered the most important member of the 16th-century Venetian school. It depicts the Biblical episode in St John's Gospel, where Mary Magdalene began to cling to Jesus when she recognized him after his resurrection. By using the phrase "do not touch me" (in Latin, "noli me tangere"), Jesus is suggesting that once his resurrection is accomplished, the link between human beings and his person must no longer be physical, but must be a spiritual bond of faith. The original artwork was painted in 1514, and since the nineteenth century has been in the collection of the National Gallery in London.
