Bourdichon’s illumination depicts the three kings in lavish garments of gold brocade with beards to symbolize their wisdom, carrying their gifts in golden or silver-gilt goblets. From the central Middle Ages onwards, these figures were often regarded as representing the three ages of life: youth, middle age and old age. #manuscripts #illuminatedmanuscripts #rarebooks #middleages #specialcollections #LibrariesofInstagram #lux #luxury #bookofhours #bnf
