Epiphany

The "Adoration of the Magi" by Peter Paul Rubens forms the altar piece at King's College Chapel, Cambridge University, Cambridge, England. 

Though there is strong evidence that January 6, Epiphany, was originally celebrated by Christians as a remembrance of Jesus' baptism, in most churches it commemorates the arrival of the Magi to the Christ Child.
