The Flight into Egypt

Amerikanische Grafik 1765–1814, kb. 1800

The image shows three human figures inside a tent or draped structure. One woman is standing in profile, wearing a gown and a headband. An older man with facial hair is sitting, holding an infant wrapped in cloth. They are near a standing donkey, and above them is a cherub-like figure with curly hair appearing from behind a curtain. The background has sketchy lines and hatching, emphasizing the draped cloth above the scene.
