Dim rustic interior under sloping beams: a woman in red holds a sleeping infant by a railing, a man stands behind, a dog lies nearby, and a figure rests by a fireplace.

The Rest on the Flight into Egypt

A dim rustic interior with heavy sloping roof beams, where a woman in a red skirt and white headdress sits holding a sleeping infant beside a wooden railing. A man in a hat stands behind her, a spaniel lies at right, and a figure rests by a hearth under hanging pots and a barrel.
