Will she say, "Yes!"

During Maggi Dawn's Writing on the Wall session last Saturday, the idea was mentioned that there may have been earlier Annunciations to other women but that Mary was the first to say, "Yes." This reminded me of the montage above, which I created for the Cabinet of Sin and Salvation. It is based on the idea, which I first heard in a lecture by Eamon Duffy, that all the key Old Testament figures were watching from heaven during the Annunciation willing Mary to say "Yes."
