Feast of the Annunciation. Inspired Fritz Eichenberg’s cover art for Dorothy Day’s The Long Loneliness. There is no reference to this scene in the book, yet he recognized the turning point was the discovery of her unexpected pregnancy. “Behold the handmaid of the Lord.”

Robert, do you know this poem, by Fr. Christian de Cherge? Eichenberg's artwork reminded me of it. (Source: Cistercian Studies Quarterly; 1998; 33, 2; pg. 222)
