"The Return from Egypt" is a painting by the German Renaissance artist Johann Rottenhammer, created at the turn of the 17th century. Rottenhammer was renowned for his small-scale, highly detailed works, often on copper, which allowed for a smooth application of paint and a luminous finish. This particular painting depicts the biblical episode of the Holy Family's return to Israel from Egypt after King Herod's death, an event described in the Gospel of Matthew. The scene is a common subject in Christian art, symbolizing the end of danger and the safe return of Jesus to his homeland.

Johann Rottenhammer, born in Munich in 1564 and active in Venice for a significant part of his career, was influenced by both Northern European and Venetian artistic traditions. His work is characterized by a fusion of precise German draughtsmanship with the rich color palette and luminosity typical of Venetian painting. "The Return from Egypt" exemplifies this blend, showcasing Rottenhammer's skill in rendering figures with elegance and his ability to convey narrative through composition and the use of light.

While the exact dimensions and current location of "The Return from Egypt" by Rottenhammer are not specified, his paintings are often found in major museums and private collections worldwide. The artwork's historical and artistic significance lies in its representation of a pivotal moment in Christian iconography and its embodiment of the cross-cultural influences that shaped European art at the close of the Renaissance. As with many of Rottenhammer's paintings, this work is likely to be appreciated for its meticulous detail, vibrant colors, and the harmonious integration of landscape and figures.
