Luca Di Tommè's artistic style is a combination of the Gothic tradition and the Renaissance style. The painting presents a detailed work in the tempera on panel technique, with great precision in detail and a rich color palette.

The composition of the painting is very interesting, as it presents a scene full of movement and life. The Three Wise Men are depicted with great realism and detail, each with their own gestures and facial expressions.

As for little-known aspects, it is known that the painting was restored in the 20th century and that a layer of dark varnish that had affected the original appearance of the work was removed. Furthermore, it is believed that the painting originally had an oval shape, which made it look even more unique and special.

In short, the painting Adoration of the Magi by artist Luca Di Tommè is a masterpiece of medieval art that stands out for its artistic style, composition, color, and rich history. It is a unique and special piece that continues to captivate art lovers around the world.
