#Annunciazione #Annunciation #Vittorio Matteo Corcos #painting #my upload #oil on canvas #art #20th century #painting detail #detail #a significant large-scale (220 x 180 cm) oil painting that reinterprets the traditional biblical scene #of the Angel Gabriel informing Mary of her pregnancy #focus on the Virgin #A Modern/Bourgeois Setting: Departing from the traditional indoor sacred space Corcos sets the scene in a tranquil manicured garden #of a bourgeois Tuscan villa. The Annunciation takes place outdoors with Mary awaiting the messenger under the arches of a portico #reflecting early 20th-century sensibilities #A Contemplative Virgin: The Virgin is depicted not as a stylized figure of classical art but as a young modern woman #in an austere contemplative attitude gazing inwards or ahead while her hands are clasped in prayer #Symbolic Light: A ray of sunlight acts as a divine element gilding the avenue and illuminating the figure of the Virgin #symbolizing the divine grace or the moment of the Incarnation #The In-Between Identity: Scholars often interpret this work through the lens of Corcos's personal life—#a Jewish artist who converted to Catholicism working in-between two faiths mirroring the spiritual in-betweenness #of the moment of the Annunciation #Subversion of Tradition: While respectful Corcos challenges the established conventions of Renaissance masters (like Giotto or Botticelli)#who frequently depicted this scene in Florence by creating a realist and intimately quiet version of the event #Date and Location: The painting was completed in 1904 and later donated to the Franciscan convent in Fiesole #Artist's Style: Known primarily as a portraitist of bourgeois fashionable women Corcos brought his ability to depict #milky-white and subtly blushing complexions to the figure of Mary infusing a spiritual scene with a human earthly quality #Chastely Impure: Corcos often described by contemporaries as a painter of chastely impure figures due to his sometimes sensuous #modern portraits applied a more restrained but still deeply humanizing approach to this sacred theme
