Painting Description
"Holy Family - Flight into Egypt" is a woodcut print by the British artist Mabel Allington Royds (1874–1941), known for her colorful and expressive prints often depicting religious, floral, and Indian themes. Royds, who was influenced by Japanese woodcut traditions, developed a distinct style that combined bold outlines with vibrant colors, which is evident in this particular work.
The "Flight into Egypt" is a biblical event described in the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 2:13-23), where the Holy Family, consisting of Joseph, Mary, and the infant Jesus, flee to Egypt to escape King Herod's Massacre of the Innocents. Royds' interpretation of this scene is notable for its stylized figures and the use of color to convey the drama and urgency of the flight.
Created during the early 20th century, Royds' "Holy Family - Flight into Egypt" reflects the Arts and Crafts movement's emphasis on craftsmanship and the beauty of handmade objects. Royds was a part of the Edinburgh School, which included artists like S.J. Peploe and F.C.B. Cadell, and she taught at the Edinburgh College of Art where she influenced a generation of printmakers.
This work is part of Royds' larger oeuvre of religious prints, which often featured Christian iconography rendered in a modernist style. Her prints are held in various collections, including the British Museum and the National Gallery of Scotland, and continue to be appreciated for their unique blend of Western and Eastern artistic traditions.
The "Holy Family - Flight into Egypt" by Mabel A. Royds stands as a testament to her skill as a printmaker and her ability to infuse traditional religious subjects with a contemporary sensibility, making them accessible and engaging to a modern audience.
