"Rest on the Flight into Egypt (Hollstein 4)" is an exquisite woodcut by the Flemish artist Christoffel Jegher, a prominent figure in the 17th-century Baroque period. Jegher, born in 1596 and active until his death in 1652, was renowned for his masterful woodcuts and engravings, often collaborating with the illustrious Peter Paul Rubens. This particular work, "Rest on the Flight into Egypt," is cataloged as Hollstein 4, referring to its listing in the comprehensive reference work on Dutch and Flemish prints, "Hollstein's Dutch & Flemish Etchings, Engravings and Woodcuts."

The woodcut depicts a serene moment from the biblical narrative of the Holy Family's escape to Egypt, a popular subject in Christian art. In this scene, the Virgin Mary is shown resting with the infant Jesus, while Joseph stands watch, embodying themes of divine protection and familial devotion. Jegher's interpretation is notable for its intricate detailing and dynamic composition, characteristics that reflect the influence of Rubens, with whom Jegher frequently collaborated. The interplay of light and shadow, along with the meticulous rendering of textures, showcases Jegher's technical prowess and his ability to convey emotional depth through the medium of woodcut.

"Rest on the Flight into Egypt" is a testament to Jegher's skill in translating the grandeur and expressiveness of Baroque painting into the more constrained medium of printmaking. The work not only highlights Jegher's individual talent but also serves as an example of the fruitful artistic partnerships of the period. Today, Jegher's woodcuts, including this piece, are highly regarded for their artistic and historical significance, offering insight into the religious and cultural milieu of 17th-century Flanders.
