About The Meeting of the Magi

“The Meeting of the Magi,” created by the Limbourg brothers, belongs to the International Gothic art movement and is an illustration from the series “Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry.” This artwork, executed with meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors, depicts a ceremonious gathering of the Magi, each richly attired and mounted on ornately decorated horses. The regal figures are rendered against a fantastical backdrop with Gothic architectural elements, while a celestial star shines above, guiding their journey. The composition is characterized by its elegant, flowing lines and vivid realism, encapsulating the opulence and mysticism of the International Gothic style.
