The Annunciation to the Shepherds (fol. 104v)

Description

A group of angels, announcing the birth of Christ and holding a scroll bearing the message, appears in the sky to three shepherds. One shepherd stands holding the bagpipes he has been playing, while another two hide behind the foliate initial 'G'. The rural landscape is hilly, there is a winding path, and a flock of sheep can be seen in the distance. Context: Hours of the Virgin: Te tercie tijt: God wilt dencken in mijn hulp
