EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Annunciation to the Shepherds" from a Book of Hours made for Francois I, dating back to the mid-16th century. The illuminated manuscript on vellum was created in either Paris or Tours between 1532 and 1540. Measuring 20x13.5 cm, this exquisite piece is part of a private collection. The image depicts a serene outdoor scene where shepherds tend to their flock under the radiant light of day. Standing amidst the herd, a group of men gazes up at an angel who appears before them with news that will forever change their lives. This biblical moment captures both religious significance and natural beauty. The composition evokes a sense of awe and wonder as these humble farmworkers receive divine communication in their everyday surroundings. The small group gathers together, captivated by the celestial message delivered by the angelic figure. This artwork not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also provides insight into agricultural occupations during this period. It offers glimpses into early sixteenth-century farming practices while simultaneously conveying spiritual themes found within Christian scripture. With its intricate details and delicate illumination, this illuminated manuscript transports viewers back in time, allowing us to appreciate both its historical context and artistic brilliance.
