The Visitation
And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:
For Advent: two pregnant women meet, and the older one understands first.
Two women meet on a path in front of a country house. The younger, in blue, has come a long way; the older, in red, hurries towards her. Each lays a hand on the other's body.
Elisabeth has gone down on her knees before the younger woman, and Mary bends to raise her up. Two companions stand to the left and right. Through the arch behind them one looks down on a city.
