Duccio di Buoninsegna's work, "Maesta, Altarretabel des Sieneser Doms, Vorderseite, Altarbekronung mit Szenen zum Marientod, Szene: Verkündigung Marias Tod," is a part of the grand Maestà altarpiece created for the Siena Cathedral. This altarpiece, completed in 1311, is one of Duccio's most renowned works and a masterpiece of Italian Gothic art. The Maestà was originally a double-sided altarpiece, with the front dedicated to the Virgin Mary and the back illustrating scenes from the life of Christ.

The specific scene, "Verkündigung Marias Tod" (Annunciation of Mary's Death), is part of the altar's crowning panels, which depict various episodes related to the Virgin Mary's life and death. This scene captures the moment when the Archangel Gabriel announces to Mary her impending death, a subject less commonly depicted in Christian art compared to the Annunciation of Christ's birth.

Duccio's style is characterized by its delicate figures, graceful lines, and a harmonious blend of Byzantine and Gothic influences. In this scene, the figures are rendered with a sense of elegance and serenity, reflecting Duccio's ability to convey deep emotion and spirituality. The use of gold leaf and vibrant colors enhances the divine and ethereal quality of the scene, typical of Duccio's work.

The Maestà altarpiece was dismantled in 1771, and its panels were distributed to various locations. Many of these panels, including the one depicting the Annunciation of Mary's Death, are now housed in museums around the world, allowing a broader audience to appreciate Duccio's artistry.

Duccio's contribution to the Sienese School of painting was significant, and his work on the Maestà remains a pivotal example of early 14th-century Italian art, influencing generations of artists who followed.
