The detail shows the Virgin annunciated.
The frescoed figures of the Annunciation belong to the same decorative program as the Deposition. The colours are somewhat deeper than in the Deposition, which may be explained, however, by a severe cleaning performed on during eighteenth century. The power of the representation lies more in the form than in any psychological interpretation, which is, in fact, unusual for Pontormo anyway.
