Mary kneels with uplifted hands as the Angel Gabriel, bearing a stalk of lilies, approaches her from an open doorway and God the Father looks down from the sky beyond the doorway. The Blessed Virgin's frightened cat, which scurries from the Angel, contributes to the startled feeling of awe depicted by the painting. Artwork by
