EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled 'Flight into Egypt,' is an exquisite 19th-century illustration from the New Testament, created by the skilled hand of German artist M. Weber for The Artistic Illustration in 1879. The scene depicts the biblical episode of the Holy Family's escape to Egypt to protect baby Jesus from King Herod's wrath. Mary, the Virgin Mother, tenderly cradles her newborn Son, Jesus, as they journey through an open, forested landscape. Joseph leads the way, his expression a blend of determination and concern for the safety of his young family. The family's journey takes place in the open air, with the sun setting in the background, casting a warm, golden glow over the scene. The engraving's rich colors add depth and vibrancy to the image, bringing the ancient story to life in a new and captivating way. The intricate details of the artwork, from the textures of the clothing to the delicate leaves of the trees, showcase the masterful craftsmanship of M. Weber. This religious scene is a poignant reminder of the vulnerability and strength of the infant Jesus and his family during their early years. The Flight into Egypt is an essential episode in the infancy narrative of Jesus, and this engraving provides a beautiful and enduring visual representation of this important biblical story.
