The Annunciation by Henry Ossawa Tanner (1898)

Mary is visited by the angel Gabriel and told that she will give birth to Jesus. In the painting below Gabriel is on the left and depicted as a shaft of light. Is this your vision of an angel? As such a young person, how might Mary feel? Seeing her youth in this image, can you begin to identify with Mary as someone who was close to your age? How does this change your experience of Advent this year?
