尼禄浮雕,公元1世纪
A cameo portrait of Nero is set in the right-hand side of the removable trapezoidal panel on the front of the shrine. It is the same shape and size as the Venus intaglio. Together with the Ptolemy Cameo, which was stolen in 1574, these three major ancient gems constituted a major focus of attention on the front of the shrine. It is possible that they were a reference to the skulls of the three Magi that were visible when the trapezoidal panel was removed. The theme of Agrippina’s coronation of Nero (she can be seen holding a laurel wreath over his head) may have been re-interpreted in the context of the medieval interpretation that biblical kings were the predecessors of German rulers.
三王与奥托国王四世
Four figures stand beneath the trefoil arch that frames the Adoration of the Magi. The figure on the left is King Otto IV, who donated the gold and precious stones for the front of the shrine sometime around the year 1200. Although he is not wearing a crown, Otto stands confidently alongside the Magi, the biblical kings who were not only the first Christian rulers, but also the model for all medieval kings. This was intended to underline the legitimacy of Otto IV’s disputed reign (he and Philip of Swabia were rivals to the throne). At the same time, it shows that like the French kings with the Crown of Thorns, the German kings considered the relics of the Magi to be state relics.
三王靖国神社,正面
The front end of the shrine, the only one to be fashioned out of pure gold, was donated by King Otto IV around the year 1200. It features the largest and most precious of the antique intaglios and cameos. The trapezoidal panel between the upper and the lower sections of the shrine can be removed to reveal a grille through which the skulls of the Magi can be seen. This structure allowed the relics to be shown to pilgrims. Tongs were also used to touch the relics with small pieces of paper or material, on which prayers were written and which were often decorated with an image of the Magi. These third-class relics would then be given to the pilgrims as proof that they had made the pilgrimage to Cologne.

带有美杜莎头像的浮雕宝石,1分. 跟随基督
An ancient cameo of Medusa was set in the left-hand side of the removable trapezoidal panel on the front of the shrine sometime around 1200. In Greek mythology, anyone who looked at the head of Medusa would turn to stone. Such legends were well known in the Middle Ages. The cameo of Medusa was attached to the front end of the shrine for the same reason that images of demons were often depicted on the west end of medieval churches to symbolise that evil had been vanquished by the Christian Church and could not, therefore, access the church building.
三圣王的圣殿背面
The Shrine of the Magi is the largest, most artistically significant, and, in terms of its content, most ambitious reliquary of the Middle Ages. The relics were brought to Cologne from Milan in 1164. From about 1190 to 1220 a number of artisans worked on the shrine in the workshop of the goldsmith Nicholas of Verdun and in workshops in Cologne and along the river Meuse that continued his work. Ornamentation on the shrine includes gold- and silver-embossed, fire-gilded figures, filigree panels set with precious and semi-precious stones, intaglios, and cameos, and columns, arches and profiles trimmed with enamels. The images depicted on the shrine include scenes from the history of salvation from the dawning of time to the Last Judgment. Although the shrine was shortened by one axis after being hidden from French revolutionary troops in 1794, it was largely restored to its original shape during the most recent period of restoration, which lasted from 1961 to 1973. The intention in the Middle Ages was that the shrine would be placed in the crossing. Today, however, it rises above the medieval high altar at the back of the inner choir, making this area the main focus of the Gothic cathedral, which was built as a stone reliquary for this precious shrine.
