Annunciation Christmas Card

The Annunciation Card artwork is painted by Ewa with egg tempera on a wooden board and is based on an incredible altarpiece in Portiuncula in Assisi, originally painted by the priest Hilary of Viterbo, Circa 1393-1450. It depicts the Archangel Gabriel appearing to the Virgin Mary beneath a golden background, announcing that she will bear the Son of God. Gabriel, radiant and graceful, gestures toward Mary, who turns toward him in humility with her hands crossed on her chest, a sign of acceptance. A dove, symbolizing the Holy Spirit, descends toward her in a stream of light. The simple, luminous composition reflects the Franciscan ideals of purity, obedience, and divine grace, uniting the mystery of the Incarnation with the humble spirit of the chapel itself.
