Rest on the Flight into Egypt (Patinir) explained

Rest on the Flight into Egypt is a c. 1515 oil on panel painting by the Flemish artist Joachim Patinir, who painted the main figures of Madonna and Child and a foreground still-life. The background landscape includes colours not usually found in Patinir's work and so is thought to have been produced by other hands. It is now in the Gemäldegalerie, Berlin.^[1]
