Image: Three Magi - Gustorf Choir Screen, c.1150

Relief of the three Magi from the Gustorf Choir Screen (Gustorfer Chorshranken), c.1150. The one of the far left has had his head replaced. The Romanesque reliefs of this choir screen are damaged but of excellent quality. They originally formed the choir screen in the basilica of Knechtsteden Abbey, northwest of Cologne, and were acquired by the museum in 1939.
