"Rest on the Flight into Egypt" is a significant painting by the French Baroque artist Nicolas Poussin. Created in approximately 1627, the work is a depiction of the biblical episode described in the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 2:13-23), in which the Holy Family is shown resting during their flight to Egypt to escape King Herod's Massacre of the Innocents. This theme has been a popular subject in Christian art, symbolizing the care of the divine for its most vulnerable and the trials faced by the faithful.

Poussin's interpretation of this scene is noted for its serene and classical composition, reflecting his well-known style that combines the clarity of form and ordered space with a subdued palette. The painting features the Virgin Mary with the infant Jesus and Saint Joseph, often accompanied by an angel, in a tranquil landscape that emphasizes the protective and nurturing aspects of the narrative.

The artwork is part of Poussin's early Roman period, a time when he was heavily influenced by the antiquities and the Renaissance masters he studied there. "Rest on the Flight into Egypt" showcases Poussin's mastery of landscape as a backdrop for historical and religious narratives, a feature that would become a hallmark of his oeuvre. The painting is also an example of Poussin's commitment to the ideals of classical art, with its balanced composition, clear lighting, and the calm dignity of the figures.

"Rest on the Flight into Egypt" by Nicolas Poussin is held in high esteem for its art historical significance and its role in the development of 17th-century French painting. It remains an important work for scholars studying Poussin's influence on the classical tradition and the evolution of European art. The painting is housed in a prominent museum collection, continuing to be admired for its aesthetic qualities and its rich cultural and religious connotations.
