Rest on the Flight into Egypt 17th century

This 17th-century painting by Federico Barocci, titled *Rest on the Flight into Egypt*, depicts the Holy Family taking a break during their journey to Egypt. The painting is a masterful example of the Italian Mannerist style, marked by elongated figures and vibrant colors. The composition is dynamically arranged, with the figures interacting in a natural and intimate way. The scene is set in a lush landscape, with a glimpse of a distant town. The painting, currently located at the Städel Museum, is a small yet impactful piece that captures the essence of this iconic biblical narrative.
