A close-up photo of the Black king from Hieronymus Bosch's Adoration of the Magi Triptych. He is very richly dressed in a white robe, wears a large pearl earring and various other items of golden jewelry. He is holding a decorative orb or pomander studded with pearls, upon which a golden bird is perched. Photograph of the painted Triptych "The Adoration of the Magi" by Hieronymus/Jheronimus Bosch. It is a large, extremely detailed artwork that features a scene from the Christian bible in which Three Magi or Kings from distant lands have gathered to pay tribute to the newly born Christ child
