The "Adoration of the Magi" is a significant altarpiece that stands as a testament to the collaborative efforts of two prominent figures in the British Arts and Crafts Movement: William Morris and Sir Edward Burne-Jones. Created between 1861 and 1862, this work was executed by the painter George Campfield, who brought to life the designs and concepts of Morris and Burne-Jones. The altarpiece depicts the biblical scene of the Magi, or Wise Men, visiting the newborn Jesus Christ to offer gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh, a subject that has been a rich source of inspiration in Christian art.

William Morris, a versatile designer, poet, and social activist, was known for his contributions to textile design, wallpaper, and various decorative arts, which were all marked by a return to handcraftsmanship and traditional techniques. Sir Edward Burne-Jones, a painter and designer closely associated with the later phase of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, was renowned for his ethereal and romanticized figures drawn from mythology and medieval legend. The collaboration between Morris and Burne-Jones on the "Adoration of the Magi" altarpiece reflects their shared aesthetic values and their desire to infuse spiritual and artistic integrity into ecclesiastical art.

The altarpiece is characterized by its rich symbolism, intricate patterns, and the use of vivid colors, which were hallmarks of Morris's design philosophy. Burne-Jones's influence is evident in the graceful figures and the emotional depth of the scene. The work is a prime example of the synthesis of medievalism and the innovative spirit of the 19th-century Arts and Crafts Movement, which sought to resist the industrialization of art and to revive the craftsmanship of the past.

The "Adoration of the Magi" altarpiece not only served as a devotional object but also as a statement of the artistic and social ideals that Morris and Burne-Jones championed. It remains an important piece in the study of Victorian art and the history of British design, reflecting the era's complex interplay between religion, art, and society.
