Jan Gossaert at the National Gallery
Another compositional workup on the painting The Adoration of the Kings by Jan Gossert (aka Mabuse)

The yellow divisions are the Golden Ratio's of the height and width (.382 and .618). The reddish lines are 1/4 and 1/2 divisions and the 1/2 diagonals. The green and cyan are 1/3, 1/6, 1/9 divisions and the 1/3 diagonals. It's just a coincidence that a lot of stuff lines up?
