The work was carved by Nicola Pisano (born 1220/1225 - died 1278/1287), decorates the pulpit of the Cathedral of St Mary of the Assumption, Sienna (UNESCO World Heritage List, 1995) in Tuscany.
In this second relief, the Journey of the Magi, three Magi lay before Jesus gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh, after finding him by following a star. The work is replete with a black magus, an entourage including mastiffs, and four trees to suggest a landscape.
