EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn's masterpiece, "The Return from Egypt, or Jesus Christ Taken Back from the Temple". Created in 1649 through etching techniques, this artwork is currently housed at the Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee du Petit-Palais in France. In this scene, we witness a tender moment between the Holy Family as they journey back from Egypt to their homeland. The central figures are Virgin Mary and Joseph, who lovingly guide their young son Jesus by holding his hands. A faithful dog accompanies them on their path. Rembrandt beautifully captures both maternal and paternal love in this piece. The expressions on Mary and Joseph's faces radiate warmth and devotion towards their child. Their connection is further emphasized by the walking stick that Joseph carries, symbolizing protection and support for his family. The landscape surrounding them adds depth to the narrative of travel and adventure. It serves as a reminder of the arduous journey they have undertaken together. Through intricate engraving techniques, Rembrandt brings out every detail with precision - from Madonna's serene expression to Jesus' innocent gaze. This particular print belongs to Collection Dutuit (b 60), showcasing its historical significance. "The Return from Egypt" is not just an exquisite artwork; it also represents themes of motherhood, fatherhood, familial bonds, faithfulness, and resilience – all encapsulated within one frame captured by Rembrandt's masterful hand
