Giacobbe Giusti, LEONARDO da VINCI, Uffizi Gallery
Annunciation is a painting by the Italian Renaissanceartists Leonardo da Vinci and Andrea del Verrocchio, dating from circa 1472–1475.[1] It is housed in the Uffizigallery of Florence, Italy.
The subject matter is drawn from Luke1.26-39 and depicts the angel Gabriel, sent by God to announce to a virgin, Mary, that she would miraculously conceive and give birth to a son, to be named Jesus, and to be called « the Son of God » whose reign would never end. The subject was very popular for artworks and had been depicted many times in the art of Florence, including several examples by the Early Renaissance painter Fra Angelico. The details of its commission and its early history remain obscure.[2]
In 1867, following Gustav Waagen methods, Baron Liphart identified this Annunciation, newly arrived in the Uffizi Gallery from a convent near Florence, as by the young Leonardo, still working in the studio of his master Verrocchio.[3] The painting has since been attributed to different artists, including Leonardo and Verrocchio’s contemporary Domenico Ghirlandaio. It was more recently determined to be a collaboration between Leonardo and his master Verrocchio, with whom Leonardo collaborated on the Baptism of Jesus.[citation needed]

The Baptism of Christ is a painting finished around 1475 in the studio of the ItalianRenaissance painter Andrea del Verrocchio and generally ascribed to him and his pupil Leonardo da Vinci. Some art historians discern the hands of other members of Verrocchio’s workshop in the painting as well.
The picture depicts the Baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist as recorded in the Biblical Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke. The angel to the left is recorded as having been painted by the youthful Leonardo, a fact which has excited so much special comment and mythology, that the importance and value of the picture as a whole and within the œuvre of Verrocchio is often overlooked. Modern critics also attribute much of the landscape in the background and the figure of Christ to Leonardo da Vinci as well.[1] The painting is housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence.
