In this Slow Art video, Jan van Eyck’s The Annunciation opens like a whispered revelation. Gabriel and Mary stand suspended in radiant stillness, each detail, wings, robes, tiled floor bathed in divine clarity. The heavenly message is not spoken but seen, woven into light, gesture, and architectural precision. Every frame invites deeper reflection on the spiritual and the sublime.
