I was very intrigued with Giovanni Pisano's Annunciation, Nativity, and Adoration of the Shepherds (1297-1301). Normally I'm not exactly interested in sculptures. However, the vivid detail on this 13th Century, French Gothic style work really catches my attention. The story that this piece tries to portray seems a little busy, but I love that the bold images are extremely realistic and basically jump off of the panel at you.
