Triptych: Rest on the Flight into Egypt is a 1515 oil by Joachim Patinir, a Northern Renaissance work, held at National Museum of Western Art.
This painting is a triptych, meaning it's divided into three sections. The middle panel shows a woman and a child sitting in a landscape. There are other people around them, and they seem to be on a journey. The outer panels have four round pictures each, showing different scenes. One of the round pictures shows a man on a cross. This might be a reference to a religious story. The painting has a lot of green and brown colors, which makes it look like a natural scene.
