Descriptions

This altarpiece panel depicts the Annunciation. The Angel Gabriel is announcing to Mary that she would bear a son through a virgin birth and become the mother of Jesus Christ.

In her blog post conservator Eddie Sinclair describes panel’s construction and how she conserved it for RAMM’s redevelopment. Before treatment photos demonstrate the incredible transformation of this wonderful object.

This object is on display at RAMM in the Case Histories gallery.
