"Vlucht naar Egypte" (Flight into Egypt) is a 17th-century etching by French artist Sebastien Bourdon. The artwork depicts the biblical story of the Holy Family's flight from Herod's wrath, showcasing Joseph leading a donkey with Mary and the infant Jesus. The etching's detailed composition with a focus on realism and attention to detail is characteristic of Bourdon's style.
