"Procession of the Oldest King (detail 1)" is a segment of the larger fresco cycle "The Journey of the Magi," painted by the Italian Renaissance artist Benozzo di Lese di Sandro Gozzoli, commonly known as Benozzo Gozzoli. Completed between 1459 and 1460, this work is housed in the Magi Chapel of the Palazzo Medici Riccardi in Florence, Italy. The frescoes were commissioned by Piero de' Medici, a prominent member of the influential Medici family, to adorn the private chapel of their palatial residence.

Gozzoli's frescoes are celebrated for their intricate detail, vibrant colors, and the artist's ability to blend religious themes with contemporary Florentine society. "Procession of the Oldest King (detail 1)" depicts one of the three Magi, traditionally known as Melchior, who is often represented as the oldest of the three kings. This detail captures Melchior in a grand procession, surrounded by a retinue of attendants, courtiers, and exotic animals, all rendered with meticulous attention to detail and a keen sense of realism.

The fresco is notable for its rich iconography and the inclusion of numerous portraits of contemporary figures, including members of the Medici family and other prominent Florentines. This blending of sacred narrative with contemporary portraiture serves to underscore the Medici's power and influence, as well as their patronage of the arts. Gozzoli's use of luxurious costumes, elaborate headdresses, and intricate patterns reflects the opulence of the Medici court and the artist's mastery of decorative detail.

"Procession of the Oldest King (detail 1)" exemplifies the fusion of Gothic and early Renaissance styles, characterized by its linear perspective, naturalistic figures, and the harmonious integration of landscape and architecture. The frescoes in the Magi Chapel remain one of Gozzoli's most celebrated works, offering a vivid glimpse into the splendor of 15th-century Florence and the artistic achievements of the early Renaissance.
