Adoration of the Magi ☷ Bosch ☴ Art Print
The Adoration of the Magi (1475) by Hieronymus Bosch is an unusual depiction of a popular religious theme, the three magi bearing gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh to the Virgin Mary and Christ Child (Matthew 2:11). It is staged in the contemporary ruins of a medieval castle, and contrasts the extraordinary wealth of the magi with poor peasants and shepherds. Various onlookers, including an ox and a dog, observe the scene underneath a curtain held aloft by angels. Perspective is used to display a vast background where ordinary people pursue everyday activities. Also notable Balthasar is differentiated from his companions, Melchior and Caspar, as an African king, elaborately attired, with a crowned, feathered fez, and gold curved sword.

Art prints are created from a giclée print on archival heavyweight paper that can be mounted in a frame. Different paper finishes allow you to customize the appearance: smooth paper maintains detail and color; textured paper slightly softens color with a traditional paper finish; and resin coated paper slightly deepens color adding a semi-gloss finish. Framed prints do not come with protective glass / glazing, to showcase the paper and reduce light reflection (it is available upon request).
