{"product_id":"the-flight-into-egypt-albrecht-durer","title":"The Flight into Egypt - Albrecht Dürer","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed woodcut from the Life of the Virgin series, depicting the Holy Family on their journey, rendered with the technical precision of Albrecht Dürer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis woodcut belongs to the Life of the Virgin series, a collection of twenty prints produced by Albrecht Dürer between 1500 and 1511. The scene depicts the Holy Family during their journey to escape the decree of Herod. Mary sits atop a donkey, cradling the infant Jesus, while Joseph leads the animal through a dense, wooded path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDürer demonstrates his mastery of the woodcut medium through the varied application of line. He uses dense hatching to create deep shadows within the forest, contrasting with the lighter, more open areas that define the figures. The foliage is rendered with precision, showing the artist's interest in natural observation. A large, palm-like tree dominates the left foreground, its textured trunk and fronds providing a vertical anchor for the composition. In the upper right, a group of cherubs emerges from swirling clouds, adding a celestial dimension to the earthly journey below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe artist includes his characteristic monogram, the AD tablet, at the bottom left, hanging from a wooden fence post. This print reflects the technical sophistication Dürer brought to printmaking, moving away from the simpler, bolder styles of his predecessors. The narrative is contained within a rich, atmospheric environment where every element, from the rocky ground to the distant trees, receives careful attention. This work remains a primary example of Dürer's ability to combine religious iconography with the meticulous detail of the Northern Renaissance tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/nl\/products\/christ-and-the-woman-of-samaria-lucas-cranach-the-elder\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eChrist and the Woman of Samaria by Lucas Cranach the Elder\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/nl\/products\/the-agony-in-the-garden-hans-weiditz\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Agony in the Garden by Hans Weiditz\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/nl\/collections\/albrecht-durer\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eAlbrecht Dürer artwork →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Albrecht Dürer","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59474968117583,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59474986631503,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59474986664271,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59474986697039,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59474986729807,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59474986762575,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59474986795343,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59474986828111,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59474986860879,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59474986893647,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59474986926415,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59474986959183,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/The-Flight-into-Egypt_Poster_CompositorV1_1794407171584.jpg?v=1794444952","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/nl\/products\/the-flight-into-egypt-albrecht-durer","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
