The Adoration of the Magi, woven tapestry

A woven tapestry shows the Adoration of the Magi: the Virgin seated beside the Christ Child in a thatched stable, three kings in red and gold robes approaching, and an angel above. Dense flowers and trees fill the foreground and background, and the border inscription names Burne-Jones as designer.
