Rest on the Flight into Egypt — Arnold Bocklin

Arnold Bocklin’s Rest on the Flight into Egypt, dated 1868, portrays the Holy Family pausing during their biblical journey into exile. The sacred subject is approached with the poetic mood and contemplative feeling associated with Bocklin’s nineteenth-century Symbolism, allowing the surrounding landscape to deepen the sense of refuge, stillness, and divine protection. Mary, Joseph, and the Christ Child form the devotional heart of the scene, inviting reflection on the infancy of Christ and the Holy Family’s faithful endurance. This museum-inspired reproduction honours the work’s spiritual resonance and meditative beauty. Printed as a premium matte fine-art print on 200 gsm paper, it brings a serene biblical image into spaces dedicated to prayer, reflection, and sacred art.

Our museum-inspired reproductions are printed on premium 200 gsm matte paper, with edge-to-edge artwork and supplied unframed.

To prepare selected historical artworks for fine-art printing, we digitally enhance images where necessary, including adjustments to brightness, contrast and colour balance. These refinements are intended to improve print reproduction while respecting the character of the original artwork. Colours and tonal values may therefore differ from the original painting.
