SynopsisOn the occasion of the 450th anniversary of the death of Pieter Bruegel the Elder (c.1525/30-1569) the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna is mounting the first-ever large monograph exhibition of the leading Netherlandish painter of the 16th century. Only around forty paintings by Bruegel have survived, which is why museums and private collectors are right to count Bruegel's paintings among their most precious and fragile holdings. Bruegel's popularity continues to be informed by his often socio-critical but always varied, entertaining and powerful compositions. They invite the spectator both to begin an artistic discourse with the work and to reflect on the complexity of its content. This spectacular catalogue invites readers to immerse themselves in the world of the Netherlandish master. The results of recent research on materials and techniques allow us to focus on Bruegel's creative process: his perfect handling and execution, his virtuoso use of colour and his draughtsmanship - these are some of the many mysteries of this great artist. Bruegel's inventions and stories create artworks with a timeless power., Nearly 450 years after his death, Pieter Bruegel the Elder is widely regarded as the 16th century's greatest Netherlandish painter. This book is the tie-in catalog for a once-in-a-generation exhibition of Bruegel's work at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. Bruegel's work is renowned for its stunning compositions, often moralizing and always teeming with characters, inviting the viewer to reflect on the multi-layered complexity of each image. Today, just over forty of his original paintings remain in museums and private collections, many of which have never been loaned out for exhibition purposes. This book presents a full survey of Bruegel's entire oeuvre and will prove to be an indispensable resource for Bruegel fans and scholars alike., This stunning compilationof the work Pieter Bruegel,the 16th century's mostfamous Netherlandishartist, is being publishedin anticipation of the450-year anniversaryof the artist's death.
