In the painting we see Mary reading from the Holy Scriptures that are situated on a pedestal that has a red embroidered knee at the bottom, when Gabriel appears with a long green stem white flower in his left hand that is outstretched toward her as she bows her head to his presence.

Below Gabriel are two large voluminous white clouds that have 6 baby angels floating on top and in them; and in the background there are more clouds with 5 more clearly visible baby angels and another one that is just beginning to come through the clouds.

Then at the very top is a white dove (that may represent the Holy Spirit), that is illuminated from behind by a radiating star burst that is looking down at Mary as she receives the news of the blessing to come.
