"The Rest on the Flight into Egypt" is a notable painting by the Dutch Renaissance artist Jan van Scorel, created circa 1540. The artwork depicts the biblical episode of the Holy Family—Joseph, Mary, and the infant Jesus—taking refuge as they flee to Egypt to escape King Herod's Massacre of the Innocents, as recounted in the Gospel of Matthew (2:13-23). This theme has been a popular subject in Christian art, symbolizing the care and protection provided by the family and the divine providence guiding them.

Jan van Scorel (1495–1562) was among the first Dutch painters to be influenced by the Italian Renaissance, and his work is characterized by a harmonious blend of Northern European and Italian artistic traditions. "The Rest on the Flight into Egypt" is a testament to van Scorel's skill in landscape painting and his ability to infuse his compositions with a sense of serenity and natural beauty. The painting is distinguished by its detailed rendering of the landscape and the tranquil interaction between the figures, which conveys a sense of peace amidst their flight.

The painting is executed in oil on panel, a medium that allows for the meticulous detail and subtle color gradations for which van Scorel is known. The composition typically features the Virgin Mary cradling the Christ Child, with Joseph often depicted in a protective stance or attending to their needs. The landscape serves not only as a backdrop but also plays a significant role in the narrative, emphasizing the journey and the isolation of the family.

"The Rest on the Flight into Egypt" by Jan van Scorel is held in high regard for its artistic merit and its contribution to the Northern Renaissance. It is an important work within van Scorel's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its stylistic qualities and its place within the broader context of 16th-century European art. The painting is housed in a notable museum or art collection, where it remains accessible to the public and scholars for appreciation and academic study.
