Painted forest scene with a huge gnarled tree dominating the view, two small figures resting at its base beside a pond with a white bird.

Rust op de vlucht naar Egypte

A massive, gnarled tree fills the left and center of this forest landscape, its trunk rising through dense green foliage toward a bright patch of sky at right. Two small figures in red and white rest at the foot of the trunk beside a pond where a pale bird stands.

Español: Descanso en la huida a Egipto, bosque con gran árbol

Un enorme árbol retorcido ocupa la parte izquierda y central de este paisaje boscoso, con su tronco elevándose entre un denso follaje verde hacia un claro de cielo luminoso a la derecha. Dos pequeñas figuras de rojo y blanco descansan al pie del tronco, junto a un estanque donde se detiene un ave pálida.
