Description
Français : L'Annonciation est située à l'intérieur de la sainte chapelle de Bourges. L'ange Gabriel est agenouillé en face de la Vierge qui l'écoute, recueillie, tandis que la colombe du Saint-Esprit plane au-dessus d'elle. Marie est assise à terre sur un tapis entre deux livres, l'un fermé, l'autre ouvert, symboles respectivement de l'Ancien et du Nouveau Testament. Fouquet les a inscrits dans les lignes de fuite qui convergent toutes vers la statue de Moïse tenant les Tables de la Loi, derrière l'autel, surmonté d'une énorme châsse.
Date between circa 1452 and circa 1460

Licensing edit

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1480, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
