Procession Melchior Gozzoli.jpg


Procession of the Magus Melchior (1461) is a fresco by Benozzo Gozzoli, at the Magi Chapel, Palazzo Medici Riccardi, Florence, Italy (west wall).

Between 1459 and 1461 Benozzo Gozzoli painted a cycle of three frescoes on the Journey of the Magi to Bethlehem (1461 Gozzoli), art. This is the one devoted to the "oldest" Magus, Melchior.
