Catalog summary
Gleb Derujinsky (Russian/American, 1888-1975) 'Annunciation' carved as two stylized figures; standing figure of Angel Gabriel with two large strong wings unfolded behind the figure, who is leaning on his left knee and raising his arms in an announcement gesture as if entering the space with corporeal vigour, and a quietly seated Virgin Mary with folded hands raised toward her face, exhibiting combination of disquiet and reflection; all on an elongated plain pedestal light wood height: 40.4cm (15 7/8in).
