EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Rest on the Flight into Egypt (panel)" by Bonifazio de Pitati, also known as Bonifacio Veronese. The painting is housed in the prestigious Palazzo Pitti in Florence, Italy. The scene depicted in this Renaissance masterpiece revolves around a significant event from the New Testament - the flight of Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus into Egypt to escape King Herod's wrath. In this panel, we witness a serene moment of respite during their arduous journey. The central figures are Mary and her infant son Jesus Christ. Mary sits gracefully with an air of tranquility while cradling her child tenderly. She exudes maternal love and devotion as she gazes down at him with adoration. Surrounding them are cherubic putti or cherubs who playfully interact with each other nearby. These angelic beings add an ethereal touch to the composition and symbolize divine protection over this holy family. Intriguing details such as a water flask and basket emphasize their humble circumstances during this biblical episode. This painting not only celebrates religious themes but also exemplifies Christian values such as compassion, resilience, and faith. Through its masterful execution and profound symbolism, "Rest on the Flight into Egypt" continues to captivate viewers today. It serves as a testament to both Bonifazio de Pitati's artistic prowess and Christianity's enduring influence throughout history.
