Painted forest scene with a huge gnarled tree dominating the view, two small figures resting at its base beside a pond with a white bird.

Rest on the Flight into Egypt, forest with great tree

A massive, gnarled tree fills the left and center of this forest landscape, its trunk rising through dense green foliage toward a bright patch of sky at right. Two small figures in red and white rest at the foot of the trunk beside a pond where a pale bird stands.
