The Adoration of the Three Kings, c1525-1530. Creator: Girolamo da Santacroce
The Adoration of the Three Kings, c1525-1530. Three wise men, or magi, from the East are described in the Gospels as having seen a new star and journeyed to pay tribute to the child marked as divine by the heavens. The wise men were often depicted as kings, and, by the Renaissance, the youngest was frequently depicted as an African, here holding a gold vessel containing myrrh, a precious resin from Arabia and Africa used for perfume. His portrayal reflects both the ethnic diversity encountered by Renaissance painters in a port like Venice, frequented by African traders, and also the concept of Christ's promise of salvation for all people

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 16th century painting, titled "The Adoration of the Three Kings," is an exquisite work by the Italian artist Girolamo da Santacroce, created around 1525-1530. The scene depicts the biblical account of the three wise men, or magi, from the East, who, guided by a star, journeyed to Bethlehem to pay tribute to the newborn King, Jesus Christ. The magi are traditionally depicted as kings, and in this painting, the youngest magus is portrayed as an African, reflecting the ethnic diversity encountered by Renaissance painters in cosmopolitan cities like Venice, which was frequented by African traders. He holds a gold vessel containing myrrh, a precious resin from Arabia and Africa used for perfume. The Madonna and Child are at the center of the painting, with St. Joseph standing protectively by their side. The cherubs, or amorini, represent the divine love and joy surrounding the holy family. The magi are shown kneeling in adoration, offering their gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. The painting is rich in symbolism and color, with the blue and gold tones evoking a sense of wonder and reverence. The intricate details, such as the folds in the robes and the delicate features of the figures, demonstrate the artist's mastery of technique. This painting is a testament to the universal appeal of the nativity story and the promise of salvation for all people, as depicted in the New Testament and celebrated in Christianity around the world.
