" Anno Domini-The Flight Into
Egypt."
By Edwin Long , R.A.
This painting depicts the Holy Mother seated on a donkey with the Infant Jesus in her arms and Joseph walking by their side.
They are passing a great procession which is taking place in honour of the Egyptian Goddess Isis, and her son Horus, whose images arc being borne aloft through crowds of worshippers. In the foreground are the sellers of idols, charms, and necklets, the whole forming a strikingly dramatic contrast. We commence our " Picture " before the arrival of the Holy Family, and with the procession in the distance.
