EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Adoration of the Magi" a masterpiece created by Jean Fouquet in 1455. The artwork is part of the Livre d heures d'Etienne Chevalier manuscript, with this particular illustration held at the Musee Conde in Chantilly, France. Published in Verve magazine in 1939, this image captures the essence of religious devotion and artistic brilliance. In this scene, we witness a momentous event as three wise men present their gifts to baby Jesus on a serene night. The composition beautifully portrays Mary, known as Stella Maris or St. Mary, tenderly cradling her newborn son while Joseph stands nearby. The figures are depicted with remarkable detail and emotion, showcasing Fouquet's mastery of his craft. The use of color and gold leaf adds an ethereal quality to the artwork, evoking a sense of reverence and spirituality.

"The Adoration of the Magi" not only represents an iconic biblical moment but also serves as a testament to Fouquet's artistic genius during the Renaissance era.
