Bartolomé Esteban MurilloThe Adoration of the Magi (ca. 1655-1660)Toledo Museum of Art, Ohio (1975.84)“This painting is Murillo’s only known depiction of the Adoration of the Magi—the wise kings from the east who come to worship the Christ Child. Murillo treats the subject in an appealingly human way, convincingly expressing the joy, solemn contemplation, and humble devotion of the three kings and their entourage as the infant Jesus is tenderly presented to them by the young Virgin Mary.” -- source link
