A magnificent large Flemish canvas depicting the extraordinary event of the Adoration of the Magi, who arrived from the East guided by the Star of Bethlehem to pay homage to the birth of the Saviour.
It is the most mysterious and fascinating festival of Christianity, depicted here in such a way as to give the scene a markedly fairytale atmosphere.
The author manages to transmit sensations of great spirituality with an image of strong supernatural traits where the scene of the Nativity brings us an important message of joy and serenity.
The particularly warm and bright colors have remained remarkably vivid, and are suitable for furnishing both a large living room and an important bedroom with excellent results, creating a festive atmosphere in any case.
