1240 Annunciation Colors Gall Iron Wurzburg Parchment Tempera
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Annunciation" a remarkable artwork of unknown origin, located in Wurzburg, Germany. Created around 1240, this masterpiece is crafted using tempera colors, gold leaf, and iron gall ink on parchment. The delicate leaf measures approximately 17.8 x 13.5 cm (7 x 5 5/16 in. ), making it a small yet impactful piece. "The Annunciation" depicts the iconic biblical scene where the angel Gabriel appears before the Virgin Mary to announce that she will conceive and give birth to Jesus Christ. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke and intricate use of gold leaf accents throughout the composition. The vibrant tempera colors bring life to this sacred moment as Mary humbly receives the divine message with grace and awe. The golden hues add an ethereal touch, symbolizing the celestial nature of this encounter between heaven and earth. Preserved through centuries, this precious artwork serves as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic skill during medieval times. Its inclusion of iron gall ink on parchment further emphasizes its historical significance. As we admire this print from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary event captured by an anonymous artist's hand over eight centuries ago—a true treasure showcasing faith, artistry, and cultural heritage all within one frame.
