Gabriel's Message is a celebration of Advent, gathering
together pieces from 13th-15th century English manuscripts which depict
the Angel Gabriel's visit to the Virgin Mary. Gabriel's Message is an
anthology of Christmas past, from harsh winds to crackling fires, a
peal of bells or a baby's cry, it captures the sounds of winter with
both its hardships and its festivities.
