Gentile da Fabriano, Adoration of the Magi, 1423



This painting is by Gentile da Fabriano, an Italian renaissance painter who specialized in the International Gothic style. I like this painting because it encompass the elegance, structure, and presentation that is characteristic of an International style type painting. The golden color give this painting a "heavenly" feel, and the audience  is immediately lured into the sacred presentation.
