Annunciation by Veronese, usually in Madrid's Thyssen museum, but on loan to Budapest's Museum of Fine Arts at the moment.

I love this Annunciation by El Greco, usually in the Thyssen museum in Madrid but on loan to Budapest's Museum of Fine Arts at present - the Angel Gabriel appears to be accompanied by a very excited angel jazz band.

Annunciation, Nicolas Régnier, painted circa 1664 to 1667 possibly originally decorating organ doors, it used to hang in the Chiesa di Santa Teresa in Venice, but after the war seems to have been removed, ending up in the Accademia In 2014

Annunciation by Jacopo di Montagnana, painted between 1494 and 1497, bought from the Chiesa di Monteortone In 1947 and now hanging in Venice’s Accademia. The expression of the angel is intriguing.
