EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in biblical history - "The Flight into Egypt" by Giotto di Bondone. This exquisite fresco, located in the San Francesco Lower Church in Assisi, Italy, beautifully captures the essence of the story. At its center stands the Madonna, Virgin Mary herself, cradling her precious infant Christ. Beside her is Joseph, their protector and guide on this treacherous journey. Together with a humble donkey as their mode of transportation, they embark on an escape from King Herod's wrath. As they traverse through a breathtaking landscape painted with meticulous detail, angels gracefully hover above them. Their presence serves as a comforting reminder that divine protection accompanies them every step of the way. Giotto's mastery shines through his depiction of emotions etched upon each character's face - concern mixed with determination for Joseph; tenderness and unwavering love for Mary; innocence radiating from baby Jesus. These elements combine to create an emotionally charged scene that resonates deeply within our souls. The gothic influences evident throughout this masterpiece add an air of grandeur and solemnity to the composition. The intricate architectural details further enhance its overall impact and transport us directly into this sacred narrative. This remarkable print allows us to bring home a piece of art history while immersing ourselves in the profound beauty captured by Giotto centuries ago. It serves as a constant reminder that even amidst adversity and uncertainty
