EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Ms 144, ff. 13v-14r: The Annunciation and Virgin and Child, miniatures from a Book of Hours, Use of Utrecht. Created by the Dutch School in the 16th century, this piece measures 18.8x13.4 cm and is currently housed at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge. The image captures a momentous scene as an angel kneels before a praying female figure, announcing the miraculous news of her impending motherhood. The lavish details are brought to life with gold leaf and colored inks on parchment, creating a mesmerizing display of ornate decoration. In addition to the central figures, intricate marginal decorations adorn f. 13v depicting the Adoration scene alongside delicate flowers and strawberries that add bursts of vibrant color to this medieval masterpiece. The artist's attention to detail is evident throughout; every element from angels adoringly gazing at baby Jesus to animals such as oxen and asses surrounding them contributes to the overall narrative portrayed within this miniature prayer book. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic skill but also serves as a window into religious devotion during this era. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in an enchanting world where spirituality intertwines with visual splendor.
