Created by Giovanni Jacopo Caraglio, a renowned Italian artist from the 16th century, this engraving depicts the momentous encounter between Angel Gabriel and the Virgin Mary. Intricately detailed, every line in this artwork tells a story. The archangel Gabriel appears before Mary, delivering the good news of her divine destiny as the mother of God.
