EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jan Brueghel the Elder's masterpiece, "Rest on the Flight into Egypt" created in 1595. Painted with oil on copper panel, this Flemish artwork measures 22x29.1 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Mauritshuis museum in The Hague, Netherlands. The scene depicted here is a significant biblical moment from the New Testament - the Holy Family's escape to Egypt to avoid King Herod's wrath. In this serene landscape, we witness Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus seeking refuge under a majestic tree amidst a peaceful woodland setting. Brueghel's attention to detail is remarkable as he skillfully captures every element of this religious narrative. The tender bond between Mary and her child radiates through his brushstrokes while cherubs and putti playfully surround them, adding an ethereal touch to the composition. The artist masterfully combines elements of baroque art with his own unique Flemish style. Through vibrant colors and intricate textures, he brings life to each leaf on the trees and every blade of grass beneath their feet. As we gaze upon this timeless painting captured in metal form by Bridgeman Images' expert photography skills, we are reminded of the enduring power of Christian faith and its rich artistic heritage. This print serves as a window into history, inviting us to reflect upon themes of escape, devotion, and divine protection that resonate across time and cultures.
