The Flight into Egypt

Gregorio Pagani

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Flight into Egypt by Gregorio Pagani: A sepia-toned drawing depicts a scene with a woman wearing a large hat sitting on a donkey carrying a baby. A man in a hat, cloak, and holding a cane leads the donkey to the right. In the background to the left, two people are partially visible. To the right, people are gathered outside an archway. Above the donkey, two cherubs are flying, one holding flowers in each hand. The sky contains several birds flying, and foliage lines the left and bottom of the image. The scene is framed by an arch.
