The Rest on the Flight into Egypt – (Jan Massys) Previous Next


Artist:

Date: 1537

Size: 95 x 77 cm

Technique: Wood

This depiction masterfully demonstrates advances in the development of new genres of painting in the 1530s in Antwerp, namely landscape and still-life, and the introduction of figural motifs derived from the works of Leonardo da Vinci. Increasingly characteristic was a division of labor in workshops where one artist—Jan Massys—painted the figures, and another—the Master of the Liège Disciples at Emmaus—added the landscape.
