Henri-Guillaume Chatillon's 1825 print "Rust op de vlucht naar Egypte" (Rest on the Flight to Egypt) depicts a scene from the biblical story of the Holy Family's journey to Egypt. The image shows Mary resting beneath a tree, holding the infant Jesus. Joseph is asleep in the background, while a lantern hangs from a branch. The delicate lines and meticulous shading create a sense of calm and serenity, characteristic of Chatillon's Neoclassical style, making this print a popular choice for religious and domestic settings.
