格温·约翰说她曾试图把这个女人的头像画成阿尔布雷希特·杜勒的《圣母玛利亚》，暗示这幅画和传统的《公告》图像有关。然而，她后来决定改进这幅画，并用她自己的肖像画代替这里展示的理想化的头像，制作了第二版；这个版本可以在林伯里画廊的当前展览的第2室中看到。

Gwen John said that she had tried to make the head of this woman look like a painting of the Virgin Mary by Albrecht Dürer, suggesting a link with traditional images of the Annunciation. However, she later decided to improve the picture and made a second version, using her own portrait instead of the idealised head shown here; this version can be seen in room 2 of the current exhibition in the Linbury galleries.
