Pieter Brueghel the Younger
Pieter Brueghel the Younger (1564 – 1638) was a Flemish
Renaissance painter, son of Pieter Brueghel the Elder. When he was
only five years old, his father died. Pieter Brueghel the Younger
received his artistic training from Flemish landscape painter Gilles
van Coninxloo. Brueghel later even married the sister of his master.
Pieter Brueghel the Younger became a master in 1585. He then started
painting landscapes, religious subjects and fantasy paintings. For
this last category he often made use of fire and grotesque figures,
leading to his nickname "Hell Brueghel".
Apart from these own inspired paintings, Pieter Brueghel the Younger
also copied the works his father created, thus often leading to
confusion which of the two actually painted the painting.
The paintings are the excellent portrayal of the events and scenes
that we see around us. The painters are the best cameras of the
world. They reproduce many different types of pictures. They even
draw imaginary pictures that do not exist in this world. We tend
to use both thinned oil paints and dense oil paints. Masterpieces
can be dyed more than once, but each time it may be different from
the existing paintings.h
