Adoration of the Magi (Zanobi Altar)
Artist: Sandro Botticelli
A gallery reading of Botticelli's Adoration of the Magi, known as the Zanobi Altar, which places the homage of the three kings among recognizable Florentine faces: the Medici family and their circle, with the artist himself looking out from the crowd. The account follows the source record's identifications, distinguishes them from what is simply visible, and notes where the record leaves the commission unresolved.
