Pieter Bruegel the Elder

Pieter Bruegel the Elder (c. 1525–1569) was one of the greatest painters of the Flemish Renaissance, celebrated for his landscapes, peasant scenes, and allegorical works. Known as the “Peasant Bruegel,” he captured the humor, hardship, and humanity of everyday life with unmatched detail and narrative richness.

His most famous masterpieces include The Hunters in the Snow (Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna), The Peasant Wedding, and The Tower of Babel (Prado Museum, Madrid). Bruegel’s paintings are admired for their panoramic landscapes, moral allegories, and vivid depictions of peasant life, making him one of the most influential figures in Western art. His legacy shaped the course of Northern painting, inspiring generations of Dutch and Flemish masters.
