Painting Description
"The Annunciation, From The Small Passion" is a woodcut by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created as part of his "Small Passion" series. This series, completed around 1511, comprises 36 woodcuts that depict various scenes from the life and Passion of Christ. The "Annunciation" woodcut specifically illustrates the biblical event described in the Gospel of Luke, where the Angel Gabriel announces to the Virgin Mary that she will conceive and become the mother of Jesus, the Son of God.
Dürer's representation of the Annunciation is notable for its intricate detail and the interplay of light and shadow, a testament to his mastery of the woodcut medium. The scene typically features the angel and Mary in an intimate setting, often with symbolic elements such as a lily, representing Mary's purity, and the Holy Spirit, usually depicted as a dove. Dürer's version is distinguished by its Northern Renaissance characteristics, including a focus on realism and the use of perspective, which reflects the influence of Italian Renaissance art on his work.
As part of "The Small Passion," this woodcut is considered an important work in Dürer's oeuvre and in the history of printmaking. The series was widely circulated in Europe and contributed to Dürer's reputation as one of the foremost artists of his time. "The Annunciation, From The Small Passion" not only serves as a religious and devotional image but also as an example of Dürer's technical skill and his ability to convey complex theological themes through visual art. The woodcut is held in high esteem by art historians and collectors and can be found in various museum collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the British Museum in London.
