"The Adoration of the Magi" is an religious painting by Leonardo da Vinci, an Early renaissance artist, created around 1481. It is an Panel painting that remains unfinished, with only the preparatory underdrawing present. Commissioned by the Augustinian monks of San Donato in Florence, Leonardo left the work for Milan shortly after beginning, leaving a remarkable glimpse into his early technique with oil-based sketches. Since 1670, it has been housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, exemplifying his mastery in capturing divine reverence. < /p>
