Flight into Egypt (Titian)

The Flight into Egypt is an oil painting usually attributed to the Venetian Renaissance master Titian. This very early work by Titian was made in about 1508 or 1509. The painting is in the collection of the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia. A religious landscape painting, its "bold brushwork and exhilarating use of color" have led to it being described as one of Titian's masterpieces, as well as one of his earliest. Though some scholars dispute the attribution of the painting to Titian, it is usually accepted as one of his works from the beginning of his career.
