Description: | The painting depicts a bird's eye view of a village fair, with a tree in the right foreground rising against the sky. The painting bears a close resemblance to Bruegel's print Tinkermesse at Hoboken, with the exception of the upper part, which is painted on a separately added piece of canvas. Bruegel's composition survives in several versions, including those attributed to Bruegel the Younger (Musee Royaux des Beaux Art, Brussels; Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge; Alte Galerie des Steiermarkischen Landesmuseum, Graz), and in seventeenth-century copies. | Subjects: | everyday life; figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Bruegel, Pieter, the elder (Flemish painter, ca. 1525-1569) Æ Attributed to school of | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8509... | Go to resource |
