"Die Flucht Nach Agypten" (The Flight into Egypt) is a celebrated painting by the French Baroque artist Claude Lorrain, also known as Claude Gellée. Born in 1600 in the Duchy of Lorraine, Claude Lorrain is renowned for his landscape paintings that often incorporate biblical and mythological themes. "Die Flucht Nach Agypten," created in 1663, exemplifies his mastery in blending naturalistic landscapes with narrative elements, a hallmark of his artistic oeuvre.

The painting depicts the biblical story of the Holy Family's escape to Egypt, as recounted in the Gospel of Matthew. In this narrative, Joseph, Mary, and the infant Jesus flee to Egypt to escape King Herod's massacre of the innocents. Claude Lorrain's interpretation of this scene is set against a serene and expansive landscape, characterized by his signature use of light and atmospheric perspective. The composition is meticulously balanced, with the figures of the Holy Family placed harmoniously within the natural surroundings, emphasizing the tranquility and divine protection over their journey.

Claude Lorrain's technique in "Die Flucht Nach Agypten" showcases his ability to capture the subtleties of light and shadow, creating a luminous and ethereal quality that enhances the spiritual narrative. The painting's foreground is rich with detailed foliage and architectural elements, while the background recedes into a hazy, golden horizon, drawing the viewer's eye towards the distant, sunlit sky. This use of light not only adds depth to the composition but also imbues the scene with a sense of hope and divine guidance.

"Die Flucht Nach Agypten" is a testament to Claude Lorrain's influence on landscape painting and his contribution to the development of the idealized landscape genre. His work has inspired countless artists and continues to be celebrated for its poetic beauty and technical brilliance. The painting is housed in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden, Germany, where it remains a significant piece within the collection, attracting art enthusiasts and scholars alike.
