Synopsis "In Art: The Magi and a Star"

In this, the latest book in the Enjoying Great Art Series, we will examine the Magi in paintings, as well as in scripture, history, legends, and songs. Like other books in the series, this one contains dozens of paintings along this particular theme. Unlike most of the others, though, this one also includes several pages of text, in this case giving us more information on the topic, the Magi (the Wise Men) and the star they followed. How often during the Christmas season, or other times of the year, do we consider the Wise Men and their trip to see Christ? For most of us, not often. Maybe we see three wise men on camels in some of our nativity sets, and we might sing "We Three Kings" among our Christmas carols, but what do we really know about them, and what do we think we know? The Gospels of Matthew and Luke both record portions of the Christmas story, but only Matthew tells us of the visit of the Magi. The complete passage is at the back of the book, and pertinent portions are quoted throughout.
