This anonymous drawing, titled "Adoration of the Magi," depicts the biblical story of the three wise men kneeling before the infant Jesus. The work's style is characteristic of Northern Renaissance art, with its emphasis on detail and realism. The artist's careful rendering of the figures' clothing and the architectural setting creates a sense of depth and volume. The scene is set in a stable-like structure, with the Magi offering gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. The drawing is part of the permanent collection at the Art Institute of Chicago.
