The Annunciation

29 September 2008

 

An outdoor painting of the Annunciation, I thnk. The figure on the left seems to be Mary and on the right is an angel. If I'm right, he's Gabriel.

 

I'm guessing this because so amny of the public religious art is about Mary, but the set up of this is a little weird, with the light beam coming from the angel's hand. And Mary seems to be reading or something, so this could be a different angelic encounter.
