The "Hours of Notre Dame Sexte: Adoration of the Magi" is an illuminated manuscript page from the "Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry," one of the most famous and lavish Books of Hours from the medieval period. The Très Riches Heures was commissioned by John, Duke of Berry, and created by the Limbourg brothers—Paul, Herman, and Jean—along with other artists after their deaths. Jacquemart de Hesdin, a renowned French miniature painter of the late 14th and early 15th centuries, is often associated with the later contributions to this manuscript, although his direct involvement in this specific page is not well-documented.

The "Adoration of the Magi" is a traditional Christian scene depicting the three wise men or Magi, following the star of Bethlehem to pay homage to the infant Jesus. This particular page, designed for the Sexte hour of the Divine Office, combines intricate marginal decorations with a central miniature that captures the solemnity and richness of the event. The artwork is characterized by its vivid colors, use of gold leaf, and the detailed representation of the figures and their surroundings, which reflect the opulent tastes of the manuscript's patron as well as the skill of the artists involved.

The Très Riches Heures is notable for its blend of sacred and secular themes, and the "Adoration of the Magi" exemplifies this by including contemporary elements of the Duke's court within the religious narrative. The manuscript as a whole is a masterpiece of the International Gothic style and is considered a pinnacle of Northern Renaissance art. It is currently housed in the Musée Condé, Chantilly, France.

The "Hours of Notre Dame Sexte: Adoration of the Magi" is a testament to the artistic achievements of the late medieval period and remains an object of scholarly interest and public fascination for its historical, religious, and artistic significance.
