EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Rest on the Flight into Egypt" by Veronese (de Pitati), Bonifacio. Created in the 1520s, this masterpiece can be found in the esteemed collection of the Art Gallery of South Australia. The painting depicts a serene scene from biblical times, specifically from the New Testament. The central figures are Virgin Mary and Joseph, accompanied by their beloved Christ child. They are shown during their arduous journey to Egypt, seeking refuge from King Herod's wrath. Veronese skillfully captures a moment of respite for this holy family amidst their long and treacherous flight. The soft hues and delicate brushstrokes evoke a sense of tranquility as they rest under a lush tree while an angel stands guard nearby. Mary's tender gaze towards her son conveys both maternal love and concern for his well-being during this challenging time. Joseph, portrayed with strength and determination, watches over them protectively. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this composition - from the intricate folds of Mary's robes to the ethereal light filtering through the foliage above them. This remarkable piece not only exemplifies Veronese's mastery but also serves as a testament to faith and resilience in times of adversity. It continues to inspire viewers with its timeless beauty and profound narrative about devotion, protection, and hope within one's journey through life.
