Adoración de los Magos

possibly ca. 1320
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 601
Giotto, que en vida ya era considerado una figura fundamental de las artes plásticas en Italia, continúa gozando hoy en día de una reputación indiscutible. Su arte posee un refinamiento intelectual nunca hasta entonces asociado con la pintura. Esta adoración de los Reyes Magos forma parte de una serie de escenas de la vida de Cristo, de las que se conservan seis más. Su originalidad radica en la libertad de movimiento de las figuras dentro de un espacio descrito en minucioso detalle. Destaca la expresión de inquietud de la Virgen ante el gesto del Rey Mago que levanta al Niño del pesebre.
