One such masterpiece is a painting from ca. 1765-93 by Josedel Castillo, depicting the Virgin Mary and Child on a donkey, with Joseph standing protectively to the left. This portrayal beautifully captures the essence of this biblical event. Hendrik Goudt's painting from 1613 also showcases The Flight into Egypt, highlighting the family's arduous journey as they sought refuge in a foreign land. Their determination and trust in divine guidance are evident in every stroke of Goudt's brush. The Window from the Chapel of the Virgin presents an intriguing perspective on The Flight into Egypt by depicting scenes from Israelites' time in the desert.
