La escena principal es la adoración de los tres Magos al niño Jesús, un tema habitual en la pintura de los siglos XV y XVI, que era el pretexto para reflejar un entorno elegante y suntuoso. El pintor trata de asimilar el modelo italiano de inicios del siglo XVI, pero permanece fiel al estilo flamenco, visible en el preciosismo de la indumentaria y el paisaje de fondo. La adoración tiene lugar bajo una arquitectura que evidencia el gusto clásico del autor, en una interpretación que padece de horror vacui por el exceso de personajes y detalles.
______________
The main scene is the adoration of the Infant Jesus by the Three Magi, a common subject for paintings in the 15th and 16th centuries, in which it was often a pretext for depicting a sumptuous material setting. Here the painter sought to assimilate the early-16th-century Italian model but remained true to the Flemish style, visible in the richness of the clothing and in the landscape in the background. The adoration takes place in an architectural setting that reflects the classical taste of the artist, while the interpretation, with its excess of characters and details, seems to suffer from horror vacui.
