<p>The life and times of <strong>Pieter Bruegel the Elder</strong> (<em>c</em>. 1526/30¿1569) were marked by stark cultural conflict. He witnessed religious wars, the Duke of Alba¿s brutal rule as governor of the Netherlands, and the palpable effects of the Inquisition. To this day, <strong>the Flemish artist remains shrouded in mystery</strong>. We know neither where nor exactly when he was born. But while early scholarship emphasized the vernacular character of his painting and graphic work, modern research has attached greater importance to its humanistic content.<br/><br/>Starting out as a print designer for publisher Hieronymus Cock, Bruegel produced numerous print series that were distributed throughout Europe. These depicted vices and virtues alongside jolly peasant festivals and sweeping landscape panoramas. He would eventually increasingly turn to painting, working for the cultural elite of Antwerp and Brussels.<br/><br/>This monograph is a testament to Bruegel¿s evolution
