"Le Repos pendant la fuite en Égypte par Maximilien Rapine" is a painting by French artist Luc-Olivier Merson, created in 1879. The work is renowned for its depiction of the biblical scene of the Rest on the Flight into Egypt, which narrates the Holy Family's escape to Egypt to avoid King Herod's Massacre of the Innocents. Merson's interpretation of this subject is notable for its blend of classical and Symbolist elements, which was characteristic of his style.

In the painting, the Virgin Mary is seen reclining with the infant Jesus, while Joseph is absent, a departure from traditional representations that often include him. The composition is striking for its use of chiaroscuro and the serene, almost otherworldly atmosphere it evokes. Merson's choice to place the Virgin and Child against a backdrop of the Sphinx and pyramids adds a sense of timelessness and underscores the connection between the Christian narrative and the ancient world.

"Le Repos pendant la fuite en Égypte par Maximilien Rapine" is held in high regard for its artistic merit and its innovative approach to a well-trodden religious theme. The painting is part of the collection of the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Nantes in France. Merson's work has been influential in the development of religious and Symbolist art in the late 19th century, and this painting remains a significant example of his oeuvre.
