EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-18th century painting, titled "The Flight to Egypt" depicts the holy family embarking on a boat. Created by Italian artist Anton Maria Piola (1654-1715), this artwork is part of the numismatic collection of Banca Carige in Genoa, Italy. In this scene, we witness the poignant journey of the holy family as they escape King Herod's wrath and seek refuge in Egypt. The Virgin Mary cradles baby Jesus tenderly while Saint Joseph stands nearby, protecting his beloved wife and child. An angel hovers above them, casting a divine light upon their path. Piola's masterful brushstrokes bring life to every detail - from the intricate patterns on the boat to the serene expressions on each figure's face. The calm waters reflect a sense of tranquility amidst their arduous journey. "The Flight to Egypt" captures not only an important biblical event but also showcases Piola's exceptional talent for capturing human emotions and telling stories through art. This painting serves as a reminder of faith, resilience, and hope during challenging times. Luisa Ricciarini has beautifully preserved this remarkable piece through her photography skills, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance today. As we gaze at this print, we are transported back in time and invited to contemplate the profound symbolism within this religious narrative.
