Bruegel


Pieter Bruegel the Elder - The Tower of Babel
 
Bruegel prints include a series of artists from the Bruegel family. They all had an exceptional impact on the direction of art over several generations. Their distinguished skills passed on through and the talents were developed and encouraged. 

Over a considerable period of time, the Flemish influence on art by the Bruegels was huge because of the number of this family members who reached a good level of success and fame. The painting style of these artists was to work in great detail across large canvas leaving an impressively intriguing series of works. Other artists that can be appreciated by those who enjoy Bruegel prints are Rembrandt, Masaccio, Giotto di Bondone and Hieronymus Bosch.
