IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 225440 accession number: P.14831-R DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Wednesday 5 September 2018 updated: Monday 7 January 2019 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: Etching on paper. The Holy Family, Mary on a donkey with the infant Christ, Joseph to the left of the donkey walking with a staff, moving from left to right. Set within a mountainous landscape with a column surmounted with a classical urn in the middleground at centre left. Inscribed on the plate below the image at lower left: 'Paul Van Somer In. fe. et ex'. This appears to be a copy after an etching of the subject Flight into Egypt by Paul van Somer II, probably Hollstein, 20: 'Mary faces right but looks at Christ Whose hand she holds. Joseph at left guiding donkey.' The signing differs, however, from that described in Hollstein. title: print LICENSING --------- text license status: CC0 image license status: CC-BY-NC-SA OWNERSHIP --------- instutition: The Fitzwilliam Museum department: Paintings, Drawings and Prints creditline: unknown STABLE URL ---------- url: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/225440 TECHNIQUES ---------- etching CATEGORIES ------ category: print DATING ------ culture: 18th Century CREATORS -------- maker: Unknown maker: Somer, Paulus II van
