Adoration of the Magi ☷ Bosch ☴ Canvas

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.

⿴ About Stretched Canvas

Stretched canvas art is created from a giclée print on canvas (instead of paper), and like a traditional painting, the canvas is hand-stretched over a solid wood frame. It can be mounted in a float frame, or displayed on its own. The sides of the canvas are finished in a solid color that complements the artwork, creating a modern masterpiece ready to hang on your wall, without a frame.
