Adoration of the Magi is a c.1495 oil painting by Luca Signorelli and assistants, now in the Louvre in Paris. It was originally painted on panel but later transferred to canvas. It was probably the first painting he produced in Città di Castello and originally hung in the church of Sant'Agostino. After that church was secularised it passed through various hands, ending up in the Campana collection in Rome, from which it was acquired by its present owner in 1863.[1]
