White marble slab. young girl to the left next to a Latin inscription. Magi with flowing capes to the right, walking toward Mary seated in a chair with Jesus, and a man behind them, pointing to a star. All details highlighted with red pigment.
My favorite Magi image: a loculus cover from the Priscilla Catacomb in Rome (now in the Vatican). A girl named Severa is to the left. Magi are to the right, walking toward Jesus, Mary, and probably Balaam. Latin translates as “Severa, may you live in God.” #TwelfthDayOfChristmas #CountdownToEpiphany

Giotto’s “Adoration of the Magi” from the beautiful Scrovegni Chapel in Padua, Italy (ca. 1305). Giotto watched Haley’s Comet pass by Earth in 1301, which might explain why he painted the star as a comet. #SecondDayOfChristmas #CountdownToEpiphany
