"The Rest on the Flight into Egypt" is a painting by Flemish artist Pieter Van Avont, who was active during the early 17th century. This artwork is a depiction of the biblical episode where the Holy Family, consisting of Joseph, Mary, and the infant Jesus, is said to have rested during their flight to Egypt to escape King Herod's Massacre of the Innocents. Van Avont's interpretation of this religious scene is notable for its serene and pastoral qualities, blending both landscape and genre painting with religious narrative.

Pieter Van Avont (1600–1652) was known for his collaboration with other artists, often painting the figures in landscapes designed by others. In "The Rest on the Flight into Egypt," Van Avont's skill in rendering the human form and his delicate treatment of the intimate family scene are evident. The painting is characterized by its detailed depiction of nature and the gentle interaction between the figures, reflecting the influence of the Flemish Baroque tradition and its emphasis on naturalism and emotional resonance.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not definitively known, it is generally attributed to the period of Van Avont's mature work. The painting is considered an important example of Van Avont's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of Baroque religious art in Flanders. It is also a testament to the enduring popularity of the theme of the Flight into Egypt in European art, which has been revisited by numerous artists throughout history.
