EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Jan Brueghel the Elder and Hendrik van Balen, dating back to the early 1600s. Titled "The Rest on the Flight into Egypt" this masterpiece is a symbolic representation of religious significance. Painted with oil on copper, it measures 23.8 x 31.1 inches. In this enchanting scene, we witness Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus seeking refuge during their flight to Egypt. The angelic presence of cherubs surrounds them, providing protection and guidance throughout their journey. The tender bond between mother and child is beautifully portrayed as Mary cradles Jesus in her arms. Religion permeates every brushstroke of this painting; its profound spiritual essence resonates deeply within viewers' hearts. Vibrant fruits scattered around symbolize abundance and divine providence amidst adversity. Jan Brueghel's meticulous attention to detail shines through in his depiction of delicate wings adorning heavenly beings that grace the composition with ethereal beauty. As you gaze upon this remarkable piece, let your imagination transport you back to the 17th century when art served as an expression of faith and devotion. This print preserves not only a historical artifact but also an embodiment of humanity's enduring quest for solace in times of hardship
