EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Annunciation of the Shepherds" a stunning piece of art created around 1480 by Willem Vrelant or one of his followers. The painting, executed on vellum, is part of a Book of Hours produced for the Court of Burgundy and currently held in a private collection. In this scene, we witness an outdoor setting in the countryside during daytime. A small group of men, likely farmworkers or herdsmen, are gathered together with their animals. One man stands out as he looks up towards the heavens with awe and reverence. He is surrounded by beautifully illuminated borders adorned with intricate floral designs. An angel appears before him, delivering the divine message known as "The Annunciation". This biblical event from the Gospel of Luke signifies the announcement to shepherds about Jesus' birth. The angel's presence brings a sense of wonder and spirituality to this rural landscape. The composition captures both religious devotion and agricultural life prevalent during that time period. The attention to detail in depicting each figure's attire and facial expressions adds depth to this miniature artwork. "The Annunciation" serves as a testament to the skillful craftsmanship found within illuminated manuscripts during the fifteenth century. Its delicate patterns and vibrant colors make it an exquisite example of religious art from Belgium's rich artistic heritage.
