The Meeting at the Golden Gate
Joachim and Anna follow the angels directive to go to the Golden Gate in Jerusalem. Here they are united for the first time since Joachim left home and share the knowledge of the impending birth that will change their livesforever. There are a number of scenes in the chapel that deal with farewells or reunions, none is more famous than this. Their private and intimate embrace form a sort of pyramid that isolates them from the onlookers. There has been discussion, but little agreement, about the identity of the woman in black. She seems to be the only person not happy with the reunion.
