Original description from Barnes Foundation (© - Barnes Foundation - Barnes Foundation)
The moment when the Virgin Mary learns she will give birth to Jesus was a popular subject for Renaissance artists. Holding a book, the Virgin kneels near a prayer desk; she is caught in a moment of private devotion, symbolizing her innocence and faith. The Archangel Gabriel appears in a flowing yellow robe, his right hand extended as he delivers the news. Above, the Holy Spirit takes the form of a dove, flying down from Heaven through a beam of light, symbolizing the conception.
