Basilica di San Francesco, Arezzo, Italia - Spinello Aretino (1332 ca. – 1410) Annunciazione (Explored)

            Stylistically, this Annunciation can be considered a pleasing mix of styles and crossbreeding of artistic periods. In fact, the painting shows how the author knew how to make good use of perspective as can be seen on the floor and in the structure around the Virgin. At the same time, late Gothic forms typical of a pre-perspective period are well present. Another peculiarity of the painting and something certainly not frequent in an Annunciation is the scene at the top. The Eternal Father seems to be handing over the lily and giving precise 'directives' to the angel departing for the earth and whom we see again below on his arrival in Mary's house.
