Annunciation
Artist: Leonardo da Vinci

Medium: Tempera on wood

Date: c.1475-1480
Location: Italy, Florence, Uffizi, Hall 15 - Leonardo Room
Remarks: One of the main, typical traits of Leonardo da Vinci – a painter, inventor, military engineer, astronomer, architect - was “introducing” and “reproducing” nature inside his works of art.
Just to have an idea, notice the wings of the Archangel Gabriel announcing Mary she will be the mother of Jesus: here are real bird wings, not just an artistic representation of them!
Science within art, art within science, this is the great charming characteristic of Leonardo da Vinci.
