EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Flight into Egypt" by Bartholomeus Spranger takes us back to the 16th century, immersing us in a scene of religious significance and artistic brilliance. The artist's Flemish roots are evident in his meticulous attention to detail and vibrant use of color. In this mannerist masterpiece, we witness an abandoned country road at dusk as the Holy Family flees to Egypt. The cherubic baby Jesus rests peacefully in his mother Mary's arms while Joseph leads them forward with determination. Looking up towards the heavens, they are guided and protected by a celestial angel. Spranger skillfully captures the essence of this biblical event, infusing it with emotion and spirituality. The soft glow of oil paints brings out the subtle nuances of light and shadow, creating an ethereal atmosphere that transports viewers into another time. The print not only showcases Spranger's artistic prowess but also serves as a testament to the enduring power of religious art. It reminds us of the importance of faith, family, and finding solace even in times of adversity. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from centuries past, we can't help but marvel at its timeless beauty and contemplate our own journey through life.
