Flight into Egypt, Maria sits facing the viewer on a donkey stepping to the left, whose right front leg has been lifted off the ground. She looks down at the child with a silent smile that she holds in her arm above the raised right knee, while the left arm is turned towards him. She wears a veil with a frowned edge, which is slightly turned back on the head and disappears under the cloak, furthermore a robe with sleeves and a round drilled neck, over which lies the wide cloak, which covers both Mary and a part of the child, but leaves the round shoe tips free.
