"Annunciatie" (1602) is a black and white engraving by Cornelis Cort (1533-1578). This print depicts the Annunciation, a pivotal moment in Christian faith, where the Angel Gabriel appears to the Virgin Mary to announce that she will give birth to Jesus. The composition is dynamic and expressive, with the angel Gabriel reaching out to Mary, while God the Father observes from above. This artwork is a fine example of the engraved prints popular in the 16th century and is now part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum.
