Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Tilman Riemenschneider (around 1460 Heiligenstadt - 1531 Würzburg). The Annunciation, around 1485 Alabaster with gilding and colored painting. Maria is kneeling at the prayer desk with a book that she has just closed and is covering with her cloak. It seems as if she wants to protect the scriptures from the vortex of the incoming heavenly messenger. With a serious expression Gabriel informs the thoughtful virgin that she is pregnant with the Son of God. The Annunciation is one of Riemenschneider's earliest works. The conception is extremely virtuoso in execution. The moving draperies keep the anatomy of the body recognizable. Amsterdam Rijksmuseum.
Deutsch: Tilman Riemenschneider (um 1460 Heiligenstadt - 1531 Würzburg). Die Verkündigung, um 1485 Alabaster mit Vergoldung und farbiger Bemalung. Maria kniet am Betpult mit einem Buch, das sie gerade geschlossen hat und mit ihren Mantel bedeckt. Es scheint als wolle sie die Heilige Schrift vor dem Wirbel des ankommenden himmlischen Boten schützen. Mit ernsthafter Miene teilt Gabriel der nachdenklichen Jungfrau mit, dass sie mit dem Sohn Gottes schwanger ist. Die Verkündigung gehört zu Riemenschneiders frühesten Werken. Die Konzeption ist in der Ausführung außerordentlich virtuos. Durch die bewegten Draperien bleibt die Anatomie der Körper erkennbar. Amsterdam Rijksmuseum.
