Panel with The Annunciation

An item at Metropolitan Museum of Art

These scenes, together with a representation of the Adoration of the Magi, were once part of a series paired with earlier scenes from the Life of the Virgin. The attribution of these panels to Burgundy is based on their style and iconography, which reveal the influence of Netherlandish panel painting, particularly the work of Robert Campin.

Medieval Art and The Cloisters

An exhibit at Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Museum's collection of medieval and Byzantine art is among the most comprehensive in the world. Displayed in both The Met Fifth Avenue and in the Museum's branch in northern Manhattan, The Met Cloisters, the collection encompasses the art of the Mediterranean and Europe from the fall of Rome in the fourth century to the beginning of the Renaissance in the early sixteenth century. It also includes pre-medieval European works of art created during the Bronze Age and early Iron Age.
