About the Item

Belgium / 18th century / Painting / wood / Antique / Religious A 18th century painting on wood after a Rubens painting “Adoration of the Magi”. Elegantly encased in a stunning black and gilt wooden baroque frame. This beautifully painted version of a well-known work by the old master illustrates a common studio practice, where the pursuit of originality was often not a priority. The Adoration of the Magi (Latin: a Magis Adoratur) is the name traditionally given to a common subject in Christian art. It depicts the adoration of the baby Jesus by the Three Wise Men from the East. These wise men have followed the Star of Bethlehem to find the birthplace of Jesus. They are traditionally depicted as kings, especially in the Western world. They also bring gold, frankincense and myrrh, which they offer to Jesus.

Frans Franken III 16th Century Oil on Wood, Adoration of the Magi, Painting

Frans Franken III 16th Century Oil on Wood, Adoration of the Magi, Painting

By Frans Franken the Younger

Located in IT

Frans Franken III and aid, Adoration of the Magi Good condition The oil painting on wood, with a gold background, depicts an Adoration of the Magi. The Magi are dressed in sumptuous silk and brocade dresses; they wear precious hats and jewelery. The richness of their garments is in contrast with the humility of the Holy Family and of the other characters who, around curious, observe the scene. The hut is simple, made of wood and straw: above it shines the Comet, symbol of the divine event. In the distance, a group of wayfarers walk along a path that is lost on the horizon, blending into the gold of the bottom. The representation proposes a traditional iconography, in which the painter inserts some details that he lends himself to symbolic interpretations. Among these is the appearance of the Magi, who from the XIVth century differs iconographically: the wise astronomers represent the homage to Jesus of the then known parts of the world, namely Africa, Asia and Europe. To the right of the Magi, in the foreground, sits a monkey, considered a demonic creature and a symbol of lies and sin. It is depicted on the sidelines, as a defeat, next to a fragment of a classical column: ruin alludes to the end of paganism, of the old world that collapses with the advent of the new one, marked by the birth of Christ and liberation from the Original Sin. On the ruins he climbs the ivy, symbol of the immortality of the soul. The work is attributable to the workshop of the Flemish painter Frans Francken III...
