Description:
|
The son of the great Pieter Bruegel the Elder produced rather superficial but invariably charming paintings based on his father's celebrated works. After a lapse of decades he revived these tender and moving scenes of peasant life, with their deep humanity and pragmatic realism. His paintings were in popular demand and evidently sold cheaply since they were recognized and accepted as copies and imitations of his father’s most famous compositions. He and his workshop made at least 30 copies after Pieter the elder’s Adoration of the Magi in the Snow. (Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.oxfordart online.com/)
