About the piece
Created in 1868 by the Swiss Symbolist master Arnold Böcklin, this work depicts the biblical theme of the Rest on the Flight into Egypt with a distinctively romantic and Mediterranean air. The composition is anchored by a cluster of dark, vertical cypress trees that contrast beautifully against the muted, hazy palette of the sky and the classical villa in the background, offering a sense of timeless quietude.
