Pieter Bruegel the Elder (c 1527 - 1569) was a Flemish painter. He was sometimes called "Peasant Breugel" because his paintings are often about peasant life. Many paintings are a sort of fantasy, sometimes reminding of Jerome Bosch. He had several sons, 2 of them became well-known painters.

One was the Peasant Wedding which was known because it shows his affection for peasant life and his droll humor. Another is the Tower of Babel which shows the construction of the massive tower and is the last painting that resembles to Bosch's works (the Painter who influenced him), this painting led to a new style in Pieter's paintings. The Triumph of Death was also well known just as 5 paintings that explain 5 times of the year.
