This amazing painting, done in circa 1500 by Italian artist Lorenzo Foppa contains a huge amount of detail to discover & delight over. The three Kings have journeyed to Bethlehem to honour the new-born Jesus, bringing gifts of gold, frankincense & myrrh. The stable is set amongst ruins; this setting is probably intended to suggest that the new Christian order was born out of the decay of the old pagan order. Whether you are interested in art history or not, you'll appreciate all the different characters, delightful horses & wonderful scenery. ...

Ravensburger The Ambassadors 500 Piece Puzzle

This fantastic image, painted in 1533 by Hans Holbein the Younger, is from The National Gallery's collection. The scene memorialises two wealthy, educated and powerful young men, who are depicted with some of their most valued possessions. Rather than the fast cars, iphones and designer brands of today, we can see books, a celestial globe, portable sundial and other artefacts demonstrating their standing in the world. Many of the items have been interpreted as references to contemporary religious divisions, whilst the distorted image of a skull in the foreground is a symbol of mortality. When viewed from a point to the right of the original painting, the distortion is corrected.
