The panel depicts the Virgin at the right kneeling on a prayer stool with her hands held in an attitude of prayer. She looks humbly down at the ground and her head is inclined to the left from where the angel of the annunciation approaches. In her left hand she holds a sealed letter. There is a vase of lilies in front of the Virgin's prayer stool and the Holy ghost, depicted as a dove, floats above the halo around her head. The scene takes place in front of an arch.
