''No. 18 Scenes from the Life of Christ: 2. Adoration of the Magi'' is a fresco by the Italian master Giotto di Bondone, painted between 1304 and 1306 as part of the Scrovegni Chapel (Cappella degli Scrovegni) in Padua, Italy. This work is one of a series of 38 frescoes that depict various biblical scenes, particularly from the life of the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ. The ''Adoration of the Magi'' is a significant piece within this cycle, illustrating the biblical episode where the three Magi, or wise men, visit the newborn Jesus to offer gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

Giotto's innovative approach to composition, use of space, and depiction of human emotion marked a departure from the Byzantine style that dominated prior to the Renaissance. In this fresco, Giotto employs a naturalistic style, presenting figures with weight and volume, and arranging them in a realistic setting. The ''Adoration of the Magi'' is particularly noted for its portrayal of the Magi's reverence and the intimate interaction between the holy figures, which reflects a humanistic quality that would come to define Renaissance art.

The fresco is also remarkable for its use of color and light, with Giotto's skillful application of chiaroscuro contributing to the three-dimensional effect of the figures and the depth of the scene. The star of Bethlehem is depicted as a comet, which is believed to be one of the earliest representations of Halley's Comet in Western art.

As part of the Scrovegni Chapel frescoes, the ''Adoration of the Magi'' contributes to the overall narrative of the cycle, which is considered one of Giotto's masterpieces and a landmark in the development of Western painting. The frescoes have been widely studied for their artistic significance and are recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The ''Adoration of the Magi'' continues to be admired for its emotional impact and its pivotal role in the evolution of pictorial space and narrative in art.
