Pieter Bruegel the Elder (1525-1569). Dutch
Renaissance painter. He founded the family painting dynasty. He is known for his landscapes, in which he also depicted scenes from the simple peasant life. For this, he is sometimes called Common Brueghel. He is considered the most important artist of his rich extended family. It is worth mentioning that for inspiration, he participated in festivals and weddings in the guise of a rural farmer. Today, 45 works are attributed to him (a large part was lost). Examples include
Winter landscape with traps for birds Hunters in the snow,
Babel tower,
Rural wedding .
