Español: Viaje de los Magos, según James Tissot

Tres jinetes con túnicas amarillas y naranjas y tocados blancos cruzan un sendero rocoso y soleado de montaña sobre camellos, seguidos por una caravana de animales de carga y figuras a pie. Colinas doradas se elevan bajo un cielo pálido, pintadas con pincelada fina y detallada.

Português: Viagem dos Magos, de James Tissot

Três cavaleiros com mantos amarelos e alaranjados e turbantes brancos atravessam uma trilha rochosa e ensolarada de montanha em camelos, seguidos por uma caravana de animais de carga e figuras a pé. Colinas douradas se erguem sob um céu pálido, pintadas com pinceladas finas e detalhadas.
