## Commentary

The painting, executed during the first years of Puget&#39;s stay in Genoa, represent the scene of the Holy Family resting on flight to Egypt. The composition makes a direct reference to the painting by Van Dyck on the same subject showing at the same time the influence of the Genoese painters Valerio Castello and Domenico Piola.
