Immerse yourself in the intensity and grace of an timeless biblical scene with this calcium carbonates low-relief depicting the Flight into Egypt. Crafted with exceptional finesse, the work conveys the tenderness, symbolism, and quiet emotion of this sacred episode, evoking both the anxiety of exile and the presence of divine protection.

At the centre of the composition, Mary watches lovingly over the Infant Jesus, nestled against her and wrapped in a delicately rendered cloth. Joseph, standing slightly behind, holds the donkey’s bridle, embodying steadiness, strength, and vigilance throughout this uncertain journey.

On the right side, slender palm trees and soft desert dunes evoke the landscape of exile and reinforce the impression of a long, contemplative voyage. To the left, an angel with diaphanous wings, sculpted with exceptional delicacy, guides the Holy Family along their path.

This low-relief is created using a traditional encrustation on mould technique, allowing each fold of fabric, each facial expression, and each texture to be reproduced with remarkable precision. The result is a poetic and spiritually resonant artwork, celebrating both biblical heritage and the mastery of the craftsman.
