Annunciation 

A conversation with Professor Kevin Hughes (Theology Department, Villanova University) about several paintings of the Annunciation in the Philadelphia Museum of Art. For more of my RU-vid visits to the Philadelphia Museum of Art go to: johnimmerwahr.org/projects/. Note: a few sharp-eyed people have noted that the opening screen says "Draft." This isn't a draft, it is the final version, but we are glad that we have such observant viewers.
All of the art in this video was on display at the museum in March, 2020. Click on the websites below for images of the paintings and more information about them.
