The "Hours of Notre Dame Vespers: The Flight into Egypt" is an illuminated manuscript page from the "Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry," one of the most famous and luxurious Books of Hours from the Middle Ages. The "Très Riches Heures" was commissioned by John, Duke of Berry, and is renowned for its rich decoration and the high quality of its miniatures. The manuscript was created by the Limbourg brothers—Paul, Herman, and Jean—and after their deaths, it was completed by other artists, including Jacquemart de Hesdin, who is believed to have contributed to the work.

The "Flight into Egypt" is a traditional Christian narrative depicting the Holy Family's escape to Egypt to avoid King Herod's Massacre of the Innocents. In the context of the "Très Riches Heures," this scene would be part of the Vespers service in the Hours of the Virgin, a series of prayers dedicated to the Virgin Mary. The illumination would serve as a devotional image, aiding the prayer and contemplation of the book's owner.

Jacquemart de Hesdin was known for his intricate and expressive style, which often included detailed landscapes and architectural elements. His contribution to the "Très Riches Heures" would likely reflect his skill in creating narrative scenes filled with emotional depth and rich symbolism. The "Flight into Egypt" would be no exception, potentially showcasing the Holy Family's journey with a blend of Gothic and International Gothic artistic elements, which were characteristic of the period.

The "Très Riches Heures" is held in the collection of the Musée Condé, Chantilly, France, and remains one of the most studied and admired works of Northern Renaissance art. The "Hours of Notre Dame Vespers: The Flight into Egypt" is a testament to the collaborative efforts of the Limbourg brothers and later artists like Jacquemart de Hesdin, who together created a masterpiece of illumination that continues to fascinate art historians and the general public alike.
