Curator’s inspection
Move across the painting — or drag on touch — to study brushwork and craquelure through the curator’s loupe.
The Annunciation
Gabriel kneels in a Tuscan garden; Mary raises a hand from her reading in calm assent.
An early work produced in Verrocchio's workshop.
The lily Gabriel carries signifies Mary's purity; the walled garden recalls the hortus conclusus of the Song of Songs.
