Studies for a Rest on the Flight into Egypt. Artist: Rutilio Manetti (Italian, Siena 1570-1639 Siena). Dimensions: 9 7/16 x 7 1/4in. (23.9 x 18.4cm). Date: 1571-1639.In this robust drawing for his painting now in the Gamäldegalerie of Kassel, Germany, Manetti portrayed the Madonna as a humble down-to-earth mother, giving her infant son something to drink.

Rutilio Manetti 1571-1639, exhibition catalogue, Palazzo Pubblico, Siena, 1978, p. 81). Another study for this subject, in oil paint on paper, is preserved in the Louvre, i
