介绍（中）	在一个家庭内部，圣母玛利亚跪在祈祷书所在的普里迪厄面前。左边的天使长加百列用耶稣即将出生的福音公告向她致意："圣母玛利亚恩典大道"（"圣母玛利亚，充满恩典，主与你同在，"路加福音1:28）这件刺绣最初是一件orphrey（牧师法衣上的装饰带）或祭坛正面的一部分，几乎完好无损。左侧和右侧的布边都保留了下来，顶部和底部只做了轻微的修剪。在目前的形式下，场景几乎完成，闪闪发光的丝绸仍然非常有活力，它可以像荷兰的面板绘画一样被欣赏——这是一种与它有许多构图和图像方面共同之处的媒介。刺绣代表了著名的荷兰或"nué"技术，在这种技术中，黄金不仅用于提供闪光，还用于增加图案表面丰富的三维质量，这是纺织介质自然赋予自己的效果请注意，由于保护要求，这个物体是在旋转的基础上看到的。
介绍（英）	In a domestic interior, the Virgin Mary kneels before a prie-dieu on which her prayer book rests. The archangel Gabriel, at the left, greets her with the Gospel announcement of the forthcoming birth of Jesus: "Ave Maria gratia plena dominus tecum" ("Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee," Luke 1:28). This embroidery, originally part of an orphrey (a decorative band on a priestly vestment) or an altar frontal, is virtually intact. The selvages at left and right are preserved, and the top and bottom have been trimmed only slightly. In its present form, with the scene almost complete and its shimmering silks still remarkably vibrant, it can be appreciated in much the same way as a Netherlandish panel painting—a medium with which it shares many compositional and iconographic aspects. The embroidery typifies the celebrated Netherlandish or "nué" technique, in which gold is used not only to provide glitter but also to add to the rich three-dimensional quality of the pictorial surface—an effect to which the textile medium naturally lends itself. Please note that this object is seen on a rotating basis, due to conservation requirements.
