EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Annunciation" by Fra Angelico, a renowned Italian painter of the 15th century. The tempera and gilding on panel technique used in this artwork brings out its exquisite details and vibrant colors. Measuring 23.2x19.6 cm, it is housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. In this scene from the New Testament, we witness an extraordinary moment when the Archangel Gabriel appears before the Virgin Mary to deliver a divine message. With his wings gracefully spread, he stands within a beautifully adorned courtyard surrounded by elegant porticos and architectural marvels. As beams of heavenly light illuminate their surroundings, Mary gazes upon Gabriel with awe and reverence while holding her hands together in prayerful anticipation. A dove representing the Holy Spirit hovers above them as they communicate through sacred whispers. Fra Angelico's masterful brushstrokes capture not only the spiritual significance but also every intricate detail of this significant event in Christianity. The loggia where they stand provides a serene backdrop for this celestial encounter between heaven and earth. "The Annunciation" is an iconic piece that continues to inspire viewers with its profound religious symbolism and artistic brilliance. This print allows us to appreciate every nuance of Fra Angelico's masterpiece from anywhere in the world, preserving its beauty for generations to come.
