Pieter Bruegel l'Ancien

Pieter Bruegel the Elder is a Flemish Renaissance painter, undisputed master of genre painting and peasant scenes. His work, both satirical and humanistic, depicts with striking realism the daily life of villagers, popular proverbs, and seasonal cycles, while integrating a profound moral and philosophical dimension. His compositions teeming with details and his panoramic vision of humanity make him one of the greatest observers of the human condition in the 16th century.
