On the left, an angel appears to a sleeping Joseph within a rustic stable, instructing him to flee to Egypt to escape the wrath of Herod. The scene is rendered with the precise, linear clarity characteristic of the Flemish printmaking tradition during the late sixteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo the right, the narrative continues as the Holy Family departs on their journey. The composition employs a wide, panoramic view typical of Northern Mannerist works, where the biblical figures are integrated into a detailed, contemporary European setting. The background features a frozen river, a water mill, and a distant fortified town, suggesting a winter climate that reflects the harshness of the journey. The inclusion of a well and a signpost adds a sense of mundane reality to the miraculous event.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCollaert, a member of a prominent family of engravers in Antwerp, demonstrates technical mastery through his use of varied hatching and cross-hatching to define textures, from the rough timber of the stable to the distant, rolling hills. The Latin inscription at the base provides the scriptural context for the scene, a common practice in devotional prints of the period. The work functions as both a religious meditation and a display of the artist's ability to construct complex, multi-layered spatial environments. The print captures the quiet tension of the moment, balancing the intimate scale of the stable with the vast, expansive geography of the surrounding countryside.\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=\"\/products\/september-aegidius-sadeler-ii\" 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;\"\u003eSeptember - Aegidius Sadeler (II) — Aegidius Sadeler\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/coat-of-arms-of-cardinal-cinzio-or-pietro-aldobrandini-agostino-carracci\" 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;\"\u003eCoat of Arms of Cardinal Cinzio or Pietro Aldobrandini - Agostino Carracci — Agostino Carracci\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Adriaen Collaert","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58365952885071,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58366025826639,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58366025859407,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58366025892175,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58366025924943,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58366025957711,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58366025990479,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58366026023247,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58366026056015,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58366026088783,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58366026121551,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58366026154319,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/The-Angel-Telling-Joseph-to-Flee-and-the-Flight-into-Egypt_Poster_CompositorV1_1785610944738.jpg?v=1785613467","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/the-angel-telling-joseph-to-flee-and-the-flight-into-egypt-adriaen-collaert-1","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
