Travel of the Blessed Virgin and St. John to Ephesus after the death of Savior is a 1862 oil by Germán Hernández Amores, held at Museo del Prado.
In the painting, a boat is shown on a body of water. There are five people in the boat, and an angel is lying on the side of the boat. The people are dressed in robes, and the angel is wearing a yellow robe. The background is a blue sky with clouds. The people in the boat seem to be traveling to a destination. The angel appears to be guiding them. The colors used in the painting are muted, with shades of blue and brown dominating the scene. This painting reminds me of the work of artist Germán Hernández Amores.
Germán Hernández Amores (10 June 1823 – 16 May 1894) was a Spanish painter who specialized in Classical, mythological, and Biblical scenes.
