EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print of "The Rest on the Flight into Egypt" by Correggio, we are transported to a moment of respite during a perilous journey. The artist beautifully captures the essence of the Holy Family as they seek refuge in Egypt, escaping King Herod's wrath. At the center of the composition stands Mary, known as Madonna or Virgin, cradling her divine child Jesus. Both figures emanate an otherworldly glow that illuminates their surroundings. Joseph, Saint Joseph himself, is depicted with a sense of protective devotion towards his family. Surrounding them are celestial beings - angels and puttos - who watch over and guide them on their path. These ethereal creatures add an element of heavenly tranquility to the scene. Correggio's masterful use of oil on canvas brings out rich colors and textures that enhance our appreciation for this fine art piece. The attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from Mary's serene expression to Jesus' cherubic innocence. "The Rest on the Flight into Egypt" not only showcases Correggio's artistic prowess but also serves as a visual representation of faith and hope amidst adversity. It reminds us that even in times of hardship, there is always room for rest and solace along life's journey. This remarkable artwork can be found in the esteemed collection at Galleria degli Uffizi in Florence – a testament to its enduring significance throughout history.
