EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print of "Rest on the Flight into Egypt" by Lucas Cranach the Elder, we are transported to a serene moment in biblical history. The oil on panel painting, created in 1504, beautifully captures the essence of the story as Mary and Joseph find respite during their journey. The scene depicts Mary sitting gracefully under a tree while Joseph rests nearby. Their young son Jesus is nestled comfortably in his mother's arms, blissfully unaware of the divine mission that lies ahead. Surrounding them are a group of angels, joyfully entertaining with music and song. The composition exudes tranquility and harmony. The warm colors and delicate brushstrokes bring life to each figure, showcasing Cranach's masterful technique. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect - from the intricate folds of Mary's robes to the expressions on each angel's face. As we gaze upon this timeless artwork, we can't help but be captivated by its ethereal beauty. It serves as a reminder that even amidst hardship and uncertainty, there is always room for solace and peace. This remarkable piece now resides at Gemaldegalerie in Berlin, Germany where it continues to inspire art enthusiasts from around the world. Its availability through Fine Art Finder allows us all to appreciate its magnificence and contemplate its profound message for generations to come.
