EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable tapestry titled "Tapestry, Circumcision and Adoration of the Magi" believed to have been created in France around 1512. The intricate piece, made from wool, measures an impressive 167.6x350.5 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Burrell Collection in Glasgow, Scotland. The tapestry depicts two significant biblical events: the Circumcision of Jesus Christ and the Adoration of the Magi. In this stunning composition, we witness three kings - Balthazar, Melchior, and Caspar - paying homage to the infant King alongside his parents Mary and Joseph. The attention to detail in this artwork is truly awe-inspiring; every thread seems meticulously woven to create a richly textured scene that transports viewers back in time. The vibrant colors bring life to each character's expression as they gather around baby Jesus with reverence and adoration. As we explore this image further, it becomes evident that it captures not only religious significance but also evokes a sense of innocence through its portrayal of children. Their presence adds an endearing touch to this historical masterpiece. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' expertise in capturing fine art prints like these without compromising their essence or quality, we can now admire this extraordinary tapestry up close. This photograph serves as a testament to both human creativity throughout history and our ability today to preserve such treasures for generations to come.
