Painting Description
'''Annunciation (1490–1492)''' is a Renaissance tempera on panel painting by the Italian artist Sandro Botticelli, whose real name was Alessandro di Mariano di Vanni Filipepi. This artwork is one of several interpretations of the Annunciation that Botticelli created during his prolific career. The painting measures 150 cm × 156 cm and is currently housed in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow.
The scene depicted in this painting is drawn from the Christian New Testament, where the Angel Gabriel announces to the Virgin Mary that she will conceive and become the mother of Jesus, the Son of God, marking a pivotal moment in Christian theology known as the Incarnation. Botticelli's rendition of the Annunciation is noted for its elegance and the serenity of its figures, as well as for its use of perspective and architectural elements that frame the interaction between Mary and Gabriel. The work is characterized by the delicate use of color and intricate details, which are hallmarks of Botticelli's style.
In this particular version, Botticelli presents a narrative that unfolds within a domestic setting, a characteristic common in Florentine art of the period. The archangel Gabriel is shown kneeling on the left, with a gesture of greeting or blessing, while the Virgin Mary is on the right, depicted with a gesture of surprise or humility. The composition is balanced with a central axis marked by a classical column, which not only separates the two figures but also symbolizes the division between the earthly and the divine.
Botticelli's ''Annunciation (1490–1492)'' is celebrated for its spiritual expressiveness and the way it captures the moment of divine intervention in a human story. The painting is a testament to the artist's mastery of religious subjects and his ability to imbue them with a sense of grace and harmony. It remains an important work for the study of Botticelli's oeuvre and the broader context of Italian Renaissance art.
