"Scenes from the Life of Christ: 4. Flight into Egypt" is a fresco by the Italian painter Giotto di Bondone, created between 1304 and 1306 as part of a larger series of frescoes depicting various episodes from the life of Christ. This work is located in the Scrovegni Chapel (Cappella degli Scrovegni) in Padua, Italy, which houses a cycle of Giotto's frescoes that are considered to be one of his masterpieces and a seminal work of Proto-Renaissance art.

The "Flight into Egypt" scene is a detail from this cycle and illustrates the biblical episode described in the Gospel of Matthew (2:13-23), where the Holy Family, consisting of Joseph, the Virgin Mary, and the infant Jesus, are depicted fleeing to Egypt to escape the Massacre of the Innocents ordered by King Herod. Giotto's interpretation of this event is noted for its emotional depth and the humanization of the sacred figures, a departure from the stylized and symbolic representations that were prevalent in medieval art.

In this fresco, Giotto employs his innovative use of chiaroscuro and a more naturalistic approach to the figures and landscape, which contributes to the sense of space and the three-dimensionality of the scene. The artist's attention to detail and his ability to convey the narrative through expressive gestures and interactions between the figures mark a significant development in the history of Western art.

The "Flight into Egypt" is celebrated for its artistic significance and its role in the transition from medieval to Renaissance art. Giotto's frescoes in the Scrovegni Chapel, including this scene, have been widely studied and are considered crucial for understanding the evolution of European painting. The entire chapel was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2021, further recognizing the importance of Giotto's work in the context of world cultural heritage.
