Paysage avec le repos pendant la fuite en Egypte is a 1644 oil by Claude Lorrain, held at Hamburger Kunsthalle.
This painting depicts a serene scene of a family in a lush landscape. The family is seated on the ground, surrounded by trees and a distant body of water. The mother is dressed in a blue robe, while the father wears a white robe. A child sits between them, and another child stands behind, holding the reins of a donkey. In the foreground, a large tree trunk dominates the right side of the composition, while a smaller tree stands on the left. The background features a hazy, dreamlike quality, with rolling hills and a blue sky. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, drawing the viewer into the tranquil scene. Next, explore the works of Claude Lorrain.
