Flight into Egypt: Joseph Pausing to Gaze at the Infant Christ
Black-and-white etching of a man and a woman with a child on a donkey, surrounded by a woman and two children flying in the air. The man holds a long staff in the right hand, and grasps the donkey's reins with the left hand. The woman holds the child on her lap, with the child's right hand on the woman's chin. The woman flying has her arms wrapped around two children and has large feathered wings behind her. The scene is in front of a city with a church steeple. The sky is cloudy and there are birds flying. The man and woman on the donkey are dressed in robes, the woman's robe is loose on her shoulders. The image has a rectangular border with rough edges. The image is on textured off-white paper.
