  • 1806.03.20/ maison de ventes : Coxe (Peter). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[The Adoration of the Magi -- a most magnificent work of this renowned master. In originality as unquestionable as it is great in design, and splendid in execution. This picture was painted for the Altar Piece of the chapel of the White Nuns, at Lovain, and was ever esteemed on the Continent as of the highest excellence of his great art, universally admitted to be every touch from his own pencil, and now displays itself as a commanding effort of his art, in the same pure and brilliant state in which it originally came from the palette of this wonderful painter: It presents itself, a composition of thirteen figures as large as life, judiciously grouped, where each figure is almost of equal consequence, without subtracting from the grand principal design, the representation in sweet Simplicity of the Divine Infant Saviour in the care of the Virgin. Art cannot go higher (Rubens)|The Adoration of the Magi -- a most magnificent work of this renowned master. In originality as unquestionable as it is great in design, and splendid in execution.
