Black Magi occasional sightings


Here the Adoration as central panel in an elaborate altarpiece by W.D.Caroe, better known as an architect, installed 1911 in Christ's Chapel Dulwich College, accessed from the Picture Gallery garden on selected days.
The three Kings are joined by two boy scholars, in Jacobean-style gowns.  I assume the extra man upper right is not a fourth king but St Joseph, hence his halo.
