This print showcases an Ethiopian illustration of the Flight into Egypt, dating back to 1664. Created by Takla, this artwork beautifully depicts a significant biblical event from the four gospels. The scene is filled with vibrant colors and intricate details that transport viewers to another time and place. In this mesmerizing illustration, we see a family embarking on a journey through nature's embrace. A woman clad in traditional Ethiopian attire leads the way, holding onto the reins of a donkey carrying her child. Beside her stands a man, his strong presence symbolizing protection and guidance for their pilgrimage. Surrounded by lush trees and flourishing plants indigenous to Ethiopia's countryside, this image exudes tranquility and harmony between humans and nature. It serves as a testament to the deep-rooted connection Ethiopians have with their environment. As we delve deeper into this masterpiece, it becomes evident that religious devotion permeates every brushstroke.
