"The calm during the flight" is a 1907 stained glass window design by Wilhelm Süs, currently housed in the Städel Museum. The design features a serene scene of the Holy Family amidst a tranquil landscape. The upper portion depicts angels in the sky, symbolizing heavenly peace. Below, Mary and Joseph are seated on a rock, with the infant Jesus in Mary's arms. The scene is further enriched by a girl and various animal figures, further emphasizing the serenity and spiritual connection of the holy family. The style of the artwork draws inspiration from the Art Nouveau movement, evident in the flowing lines and organic forms of the landscape and angelic figures.
