Rogier van der Weyden biography
This work is linked to Luke 1:40
The panoramic view behind Mary suggests that she has come a long way. Her status as the Mother of Christ is symbolized by her posture – Mary stands up straight where Elizabeth genuflexes slightly. Both women place a hand on each other's stomach.
Before the entrance to the peculiar castle-like mansion we can see the Elizabeth's husband Zachary, playing with a dog.
