'The Holy Family', 1855, (1946). Artist: Rodolphe Bresdin.

'The Holy Family', 1855, (1946). Also known as 'The Flight into Egypt', we see  Joseph, Mary and the Child Jesus sitting next to a river, surrounded by tall trees. Rodolphe Bresdin (1822-1885) was self-taught and restricted himself exclusively to drawing and printmaking. Very little of his work was understood or appreciated during his lifetime. His work is a discovery of the 20th century and is now recognised for its rare vision and technical expertise. From The Etchings of the French Impressionists and Their Contemporaries, by Edward T. Chase. [The Hyperion Press, Paris, 1946].
