Annonciation Archangel Gabriel Marie
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a panel from a diptych that depicts the Angel of the Annunciation, a donor, and possibly St. Mary Magdalene. Created around 1420 by the Master of the Rohan Hours, this exquisite artwork is now housed in the Musee Municipal in Laon, France. The panel captures a momentous scene from Christian tradition - the angel Gabriel announcing to Mary that she will conceive and give birth to Jesus. The archangel Gabriel is depicted with majestic wings spread wide as he kneels before Mary, who humbly receives his message. The donor, whose identity remains unknown, stands beside them in devout contemplation. The artist's skillful use of oil on panel brings depth and richness to this medieval masterpiece. Every intricate detail - from the delicate folds of fabric to the expressions on each figure's face - reveals an exceptional level of craftsmanship. While it is uncertain whether the female saint portrayed here is indeed St. Mary Magdalene or another holy figure, her presence adds an air of reverence and spirituality to this composition. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery but also invites us into a sacred moment frozen in time. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend centuries and cultures while evoking profound emotions within its viewers.
