"Adoration of the Magi" is a religious painting in tempera on wood panel by Luca Signorelli, created circa 1493–1494 with his assistants. This Early renaissance artwork, now housed in the Louvre in Paris, was likely Signorelli's first piece produced in Città di Castello and originally hung over the main altar of the monastery church of Sant'Agostino. Measuring 331 cm by 245.5 cm, it depicts the Magi presenting gifts to the infant Jesus, exemplifying the period's mastery in religious storytelling. As of late 2022, the painting was not on display.
