Description
Pieter Bruegel the Elder (c. 1525–1569) was a Flemish painter and printmaker renowned for his detailed and imaginative depictions of peasant life, landscapes, and allegorical scenes. Born in the Netherlands, he was influenced by the Italian Renaissance during his travels but developed a unique style that focused on Northern European traditions. His works, such as The Hunters in the Snow and The Peasant Wedding, are celebrated for their vivid storytelling, humor, and social commentary. Bruegel's innovative compositions and attention to detail make him a key figure in 16th-century art. His legacy profoundly influenced later generations of artists, including his sons.
