And.., they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down and worshipped him." This immortal moment is re-created in Gentile da Fabriano's Adoration of the Magi, now in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence. Gentile di Niccolo di Giovanni Massi was born in Fabriano, Italy, circa 1370, and much of his painting has been lost; but the flowering time of his art came not long before his death in 1427, and the Adoration was his masterwork. This week, from the snowlands of the North to the summer-lands of the South, hosts of people are spiritually reliving the adoration. SHORT STORIES: The Christmas Cotillion . . . ELIZABETH DUNN.
