This exquisite piece by the English School depicts a profound and mystical scene filled with symbolism and religious significance. In this image, we witness three wise men, known as Balthazar, Caspar, and Malchior, who have embarked on their journey guided by an omen. As they rest upon ornate beds in regal surroundings, an angelic figure appears before them in a vision. Bathed in ethereal light, this heavenly messenger delivers a divine message through word of God. The intricate details of gothic architecture enhance the grandeur of this sacred moment. The kings' crowns symbolize their royal status while also representing their devotion to honoring the newborn king foretold by prophecy.
