“Annunciation” was written for Scuola Dei Mercanti, whose building is still today near the church of the Madonna del Orto. Originally the canvas was the central part of the triptych, its side canvases depicted the Monochrome allegorical figures of Charity and Bera.
On the bases of columns are placed the arms of the customers of the canvas – the families of Kadabrazzo and Koponi. The composition is built as a theatrical performance in scenery with an architectural perspective. In the depth of the enfilade is a small temple, as if drawing in itself a magnificent space and reminiscent of the Church of Santa Maria Novella in Vicenza, the city of Andrea Palladio, not only the great architect, but also the creator of magnificent scenographic illusions that made the city of Teatro Olimpico all over the world.
