Adoration of the Magi (Mantegna)
Painting by Andrea Mantegna / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Adoration of the Magi or Uffizi Triptych is a group of three tempera-on-panel paintings by Andrea Mantegna, dating to around 1460. Their three subjects are the Ascension of Christ (86 by 42.5 cm), Adoration of the Magi the largest and central panel (76 by 76.5 cm) and the Circumcision of Christ (86 by 42.5 cm). They were gathered as a trio in the 19th century, although some art historians doubt that they were created as a triptych set as they are arranged. They are in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence.
