The Annunciation in the Early Italian Renaissance

This video is part of Art For Advent 2015. Comparing Fra Angelico’s 1425-1428 The Annunciation, Fra Filippo Lippi’s 1435-1440 The Annunciation, Sandro Botticelli’s 1489-1490 Cestello Annunciation, and Leonardo da Vinci’s c. 1472-1480 The Annunciation, this video ties the Art for Advent series together by exploring how these paintings of the annunciation give visual expression to a Renaissance theology of incarnational humanism. Written and narrated by Dr. James Romaine.
