EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "A Drapery Study for a Virgin Annunciate" by the renowned Italian artist Francesco Botticini. Created in the mid-15th century, this exquisite piece of art is rendered with black chalk, pen and ink on brown paper, displaying Botticini's exceptional talent and attention to detail. The study depicts a three-quarter length figure of a young woman standing gracefully, her posture conveying both elegance and humility. With her gaze lowered, she exudes an air of serenity as she clutches her hand to her chest in reverence. The drapery surrounding her adds depth and texture to the composition, highlighting Botticini's mastery in capturing fabric folds. As one of the leading figures of the early Renaissance period, Botticini's work often explored religious themes. This particular study represents his interpretation of the Virgin Annunciate—an important Christian iconography symbolizing Mary receiving news from Gabriel about becoming the mother of Jesus. Measuring 32.1 x 121.8 cm, this artwork is housed within a private collection but has been made available through eChristies Images for public appreciation. Its timeless beauty continues to inspire viewers today as it exemplifies not only Botticini's artistic prowess but also captures the essence of religious devotion during that era.
