A particularly striking picture of the Annunciation is provided at: ncregister.com/images/uploads/annunciation2.jpg
—Far from being overwhelmed from shock by this event, this painting shows Mary ponder about this event as it occurs. “She was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be,” the Gospel of Saint Luke says (Luke 1:29). From this alone, as an angel appears to her, it seems, she lives on the same plane of this event, one that has come so from God. (Painted in 1898 by the Afro-American artist, Henry Ossawa Tanner)
And a vivid account of the Annunciation is also given, by an article, at [cbn.com/special/TheNativityMovie/articles/Hughes_Christmas.aspx](http://www.cbn.com/special/TheNativityMovie/articles/Hughes_Christmas.aspx)
