The Adoration of the Kings (1564) by
Pieter Bruegel the Elder; A rather unusual take of the Adoration from PBeE. Many of those surrounding Christ—including the Three Kings—are caricatured slightly or shown as a grotesque, and the Virgin is shown naturally and not idealised. The viewpoint is from a slightly elevated position, which has the effect of focussing attention on the Christ figure in the Virgin's lap, which is shown in the exact centre of the painting.
