EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from the famous painting "Adoration of the Magi" by Gentile da Fabriano. Created in 1423, this masterpiece is an exquisite example of early Renaissance Italian art. The altarpiece, also known as the Pala Strozzi, was commissioned by Palla Strozzi, a prominent Florentine banker. In this particular section of the painting, we are transported to the birth scene of Jesus Christ. The three wise men, adorned in lavish costumes and head coverings, approach with reverence and awe. They are accompanied by their entourage which includes servants and animals such as dogs and horses. The attention to detail is remarkable; every element within this composition has been meticulously painted using tempera on panel technique. The gilded frame adds a touch of opulence to this religious tableau. As our eyes wander through the image, we notice various symbols and inscriptions that further enhance its meaning. Behind one of the kings stands Palla Strozzi himself with his falcon perched on his arm - a subtle nod to his patronage. This print captures not only an extraordinary moment in art history but also invites us into a world filled with devotion and spirituality. It serves as a testament to both Gentile da Fabriano's artistic prowess and the enduring power of religious iconography throughout time.
