    Anunciación

    Ángel Zárraga (Mexican, unknown)

    A golden light spills across the scene as the angel kneels, wings still trembling from flight. Mary’s hands hover mid-gesture—not quite refusal, not yet acceptance. The air hums with unspoken words. Between them, a silence thick enough to shape destinies.

    Simone Martini (Italian, 1284–1344)

    Golden wings shimmer as the angel kneels, delivering divine news. Lilies bloom between them, their white petals stark against the gilded background. The Virgin’s blue robe folds in delicate ripples, her hand raised in startled grace. A moment suspended—sacred, silent, charged with unspoken words.
