This is half of an image of the Annunciation, the moment Gabriel appeared to the Virgin Mary to tell her that she would conceive the son of God. Mary is shown in another roundel on the opposite side of the altarpiece. Gabriel is holding a lily, a traditional symbol of the Virgin’s purity, and raises his hand in a gesture of blessing.
