EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The Flight into Egypt" takes us back to the 16th century. Created by Adriaen Collaert, a renowned Flemish artist of the Baroque era, this engraving beautifully depicts a biblical scene from the New Testament. In this artwork, we witness Joseph leading Mary and baby Jesus on their perilous journey as they flee from King Herod's wrath. The intricate details in Collaert's work showcase his mastery of engraving techniques. The delicate lines and shading bring life to each element within the composition. The landscape surrounding the holy family is meticulously crafted, showcasing Collaert's talent for capturing nature's beauty. As they traverse through Flanders' countryside, we see lush trees and rolling hills that create a serene backdrop for this sacred moment. Mary tenderly cradles her infant son while riding on a donkey alongside Joseph. Their expressions reflect both determination and vulnerability as they navigate an uncertain path towards safety. "The Flight into Egypt" serves not only as an artistic masterpiece but also as a testament to Christian faith. It reminds us of the hardships faced by those who seek refuge in times of adversity—a theme that resonates even today. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this print stands as a remarkable example of religious art from centuries past. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate viewers with its profound storytelling ability and impeccable craftsmanship.
