EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by George Hitchcock that beautifully captures the biblical scene of the Virgin Mary receiving news from the angel Gabriel. This masterpiece, measuring 158.8x204.5 cm, can be found in The Art Institute of Chicago as part of the Potter Palmer Collection. In this enchanting depiction, we witness a serene garden setting where vibrant flowers and lush greenery surround Mary. Bathed in ethereal light, she stands with grace and humility as she receives the divine message. The delicate lilies symbolize purity and innocence while adding an air of tranquility to the composition. Hitchcock's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of Mary's expression – a mix of awe, reverence, and perhaps even apprehension at what lies ahead for her. The artist masterfully uses color and brushstrokes to create depth and texture throughout the canvas. This painting not only showcases Hitchcock's exceptional artistic skills but also serves as a powerful representation of faith and devotion within Christianity. It reminds us of one of the most significant events in Christian history - when Mary was chosen to bear God's son. "The Annunciation, 1887" continues to inspire viewers with its timeless beauty and spiritual significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork today, we are transported back in time to witness this sacred encounter between heaven and earth through Hitchcock's skillful interpretation.
