1660 Flight Into Egypt Jan Van Ossenbeeck Gravures Anciennes Kupferstich Kabinett Old Master Prints
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Flight into Egypt" by Jan van Ossenbeeck, we are transported back in time to witness a biblical scene of profound significance. Created in or after 1660, this exquisite engraving showcases the artist's exceptional skill and attention to detail. The image depicts Joseph, Mary, and the infant Jesus fleeing from Bethlehem towards Egypt. The holy family is shown on their arduous journey through a barren landscape, seeking refuge from King Herod's wrath. Their expressions convey a sense of urgency and vulnerability as they navigate treacherous terrain. Jan van Ossenbeeck masterfully captures the play of light and shadow in this composition. The soft glow emanating from above illuminates their path while casting dramatic shadows that heighten the emotional intensity of the scene. This interplay between light and dark adds depth and dimension to the artwork. The meticulous engravings bring every intricate detail to life – from the folds in Mary's robes to Joseph's weary expression. Van Ossenbeeck's technical prowess is evident in his ability to create such lifelike textures using only lines etched onto copper plates. This remarkable print, housed at Kupferstichkabinett Arkheia, serves as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic excellence. It invites viewers to reflect upon themes of faith, resilience, and hope amidst adversity—a timeless message that resonates even today. Artokoloro has once again curated an extraordinary piece from Lis
