Last class, we looked at several works by Pieter Bruegel the Elder. Prior to this class, I was only familiar with the Peasant Wedding, a painting which I had always been a fan of. It is interesting to see how versatile of an artist he was, in that he painted narrative scenes, landscapes, and scenes depicting everyday life in the villages. This stands out especially since, as we discussed, Bruegel painted in an era where artists began to specialize in certain subject matter. One thing i’ve noticed is that Bruegel’s paintings are not focused on a particular subject, instead they depict a scene in its entirety where each of its elements are equally important.
