Oil on canvas. The sacred representation, rich in figures, is placed outside a ruined architectural structure that houses the donkey and the ox, in a countryside landscape with mountain slopes in the distance. The Holy Family, at the center of the scene, receives the visit of the three Magi from the East, recognizable by their sumptuous clothes: the first kneeling before the Child, with the crown resting on the ground as a sign of humble homage; the second behind him on the right, is taking the urn with the gift he brings from the hands of the servant; the third, just dismounted from his horse, even further back, waits sitting on the edge of the well. All around, multiple figures of the kings\' entourage are depicted, together with groups of shepherds who climb up the ruins to watch the scene. Above, the two angels with the writing Gloria hover, while above the hut the comet shines. The chorality of the scene immediately stands out, where no one stands out or excels, but all the characters have their role that revolves around the figure of Baby Jesus. The canvas was restored (small patch on the back) and remounted on a stretcher in the mid-1900s, as well as placed in a frame from the same period.
