Agostino Carracci's "Aanbidding door de koningen (deel rechtsboven)" is a black and white engraving depicting the upper right portion of the biblical story of the Adoration of the Magi. The scene features a large tree, a procession of figures approaching an archway, and an angel hovering in the upper right corner. This detail from Carracci's larger composition highlights the dynamic perspective and architectural details characteristic of Mannerist art. The engraving, measuring 396 mm high and 520 mm wide, is housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
