Summary

[edit]
Description

The left-hand panel depicts The Annunciation. The scroll over Gabriel's head is from the Hail Mary. The symbolic pot of lilies stands near her prayer desk, and as well as the dove descending there appears to be an embryonic Christ bearing a T-shaped cross. This depiction also occurs in fifteenth century Italian pictures.

The right-hand panel shows The Visitation, with Mary on the left, and the scroll containing words from the Magnificat. In the background there is a representation of the fifteenth century church, and a dove in a pine tree which may be related to the legend of the suitors of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the budding rods.
