The Annunciation - oil painting of the Spanish painter of Greek origin Dominicos Theotokopulos, known as El Greco. El Greco depicted a scene taken from the New Testament, only described in the canonical Gospel of Luke. The theme of the Annunciation of Mary by Archangel Gabriel was often depicted by painters of different eras and interpreted in many ways. The mysticism and significance of the episode allowed the painters to freely present Mary's reaction to the message from the Archangel about God's will and the impact of the news of conception on other characters; they also made it possible to use many different details and details of the surroundings to emphasize the importance of the scene. El Greco kept returning to this motif throughout his career: from the polyptych of Modena, where his work was influenced by Titian and Tintoretto, to the last version of the Annunciation from 1614, in the Santander collection in Madrid.
