About the piece

This evocative work by Flemish Baroque painter Theodoor Boeyermans captures the biblical Flight into Egypt. Characterized by its luminous palette and dynamic figures, the scene depicts Mary and the infant Jesus guided by Joseph and a protective angel. The soft, atmospheric landscape and painterly brushwork are hallmarks of the 17th-century Antwerp school.
