Painting of the Adoration of the Magi: a kneeling king in a golden robe bows to a baby on straw, with Mary and attendants in dark shadowy surroundings.

The Adoration of the Magi

A dim nativity scene lit by a single warm spotlight. A kneeling magus in a fur-lined, gold-embroidered robe bows before the Christ Child, who lies on straw in the lower right beside Mary, while a turbaned attendant kneels with a vessel and a standing figure beneath a parasol looks on.
