Hi! Is this what you're looking for? "Adoration of the Magi." by Peter Paul Rubens. A 10 ft. 9¼ in. by 8 ft. panel painted in 1634 for Louvain's Convent of the Dames Blanches. It was sold by the heirs of the Duke of Westminster, bought by an English dealer and resold, or he was acting as agent, it isn't quite clear, for Major A.E. Allnott who then donated it to King's College Chapel, Cambridge.
Here's the whole story:
