The Annunciation?8.5x11"?Victorian Art ? Auguste Pichon ? Catholic Art Print ? Archival Quality ? St Mary ? Angel Gabriel This Annunciation, painted in the middle of the Victorian era, is unique in its delicacy and restraint.

Gabriel is pointing to the Holy Spirit, even after Mary has lowered her gaze, for our benefit. Auguste Pichon was one of the most famous portrait painters of the 19th Century. He was a collaborator with Ingres, even assisting on the latter?s self-portrait. He was known for expressing subtle character traits with deft mastery.
