About this work

Mary sits with the child on her lap resting by a tree during the Flight into Egypt. Joseph stands behind them and leans against the tree trunk. Around the sitting Mary and the Christ child dance putti. Two putti sit in the tree and catch young crows from a nest. In the background a mountainous landscape is depicted. Top left and right are two shields with the electoral and ducal coat of arms of Saxony depicted.
