The original The Flight into Egypt by William-Adolphe Bouguereau was completed in 1885. It was one of his major religious paintings from the height of his career and became popular enough to be reproduced internationally.
That timeline lines up very well with your print:
1885 – Bouguereau paints the original.Gautier creates a finely engraved interpretation of the painting.1892 – Lautz Bros. & Co. copyrights the American chromolithograph edition, printed by The Knapp Company.20th century – Your print is eventually professionally reframed.
An American publisher issuing a licensed or authorized chromolithograph seven years after the original painting was very common at the time. Popular religious works by Bouguereau were in high demand for churches, convents, schools, and Catholic homes.

William Bouguereau – one of the most collected Academic painters in the world.Gautier - Engraver from FranceLautz Bros. & Co. – a respected publisher of Catholic devotional art.The Knapp Company – among the finest American chromolithographers of the late 19th century.
