EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Annunciation, altarpiece of the Carafa Chapel" a breathtaking fresco painted by Filippino Lippi between 1488 and 1493. The artwork is located in the Santa Maria sopra Minerva in Rome, Italy, and has been beautifully captured by photographer Stefano Baldini. In this masterpiece, we see an exquisite portrayal of the biblical event known as "The Annunciation".

Lippi's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing the delicate expressions on both figures' faces. The artist skillfully incorporates architectural elements into his composition, enhancing the sacred atmosphere of the scene. The interior of the chapel serves as a stunning backdrop for this divine encounter between heaven and earth. "The Annunciation" is not only a religious depiction but also an artistic marvel. Filippino Lippi's mastery shines through his use of color and light to create depth and dimension within the painting. This work exemplifies Lippi's talent as one of Italy's most celebrated painters during his time. Bridgeman Images presents this print as part of their Fine Art Finder collection, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate this remarkable piece without commercial intentions.
