Jacob Matham

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image depicting a biblical scene, "Rest on the Flight into Egypt" by Jacob Matham. The scene shows a woman sitting on the ground, wearing a long dress and cloak, holding a baby. The woman sits with her legs crossed, looking down at the baby in her lap, her head slightly bowed. The baby is naked, lying on its back, with one arm raised. To their right, a donkey kneels on the ground. On the left, a man stands on a hillside; he wears a long coat and looks up. The background features trees, a body of water, and distant mountains under a cloudy sky. The artwork is framed with a border and includes a caption at the bottom.
