Today is the Feast of the #Annunciation.
This 1270s illustration was inserted into a #14thCentury #psalter now owned by #StJohnsCollege at #CambridgeUniversity - where red is the college colour; hence the name of the #blazer. Note the magnificent red & gold wings of the #ArchangelGabriel in this wonderful depiction!

Vandaag naar het Teylersmuseum in Haarlem met de tentoonstelling van David Hockney. Deze Annunciation II (2017) is wel passend bij de tijd van het jaar. #teylersmuseum #davidhockney #annunciation #schilderskunst

Vandaag naar het Teylersmuseum in Haarlem met de tentoonstelling Hockney's Eye. Deze Annunciation II (2017) is wel passend bij de tijd van het jaar. Het schilderij is een bewerking van de Annunciation van Fra Angelico, waarin het perspectief wordt omgedraaid. #teylersmuseum #davidhockney #annunciation #schilderskunst #omgekeerdperspectief #fraangelico

The Annunciation, Fra Angelico (1395–1455), Tempera on panel, Museo Nacional del Prado. “Some say that Fra Giovanni would never have taken his brushes in his hand without first offering a prayer. He never painted a Crucifix without the tears streaming down his cheeks.” — Giorgio Vasari (1511–1574), in Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and Architects. #arthistory #advent #annunciation
