Bruegel was influenced by French and Italian artists during his journeys in those two countries but actually kept more to his own style which was the late Gothic style of Hieronymus Bosch and paintings that are confusing and very complex, for example, 100 Proverbs which illustrates 100 proverbs. On the trips though he was mainly influenced by the landscapes, for example he made a lot of sketches of the Alps when he crossed them to get back to Antwerp. He was also influenced by his own master, Pieter Coecke van Aelst, that he had during his time in the painter's guild in Antwerp. Other than that, he was a very individual artist who got most of the ideas on his paintings from himself.

As he lived in Antwerp and Brussels most of his life he probably got a lot of the landscapes and peasant paintings from that area.

There was almost never an individual patron that he worked for, this is because he made paintings when he wanted to make paintings. And when he made paintings, they contained many people that he sketched from when he saw them or the people were in a landscape, where you don't really need people to pose for you.

The relationship between him and his patrons would be that he is very interested in peasants and painting landscapes.

Brugel's paintings influenced a number of writers, including

  • William Carlos Williams: A poem he wrote in 1960 was influenced by Brugel's painting Landscape with the Fall of Icarus.
  • The painting also was the subject of the poem "Musee des Bequs Arts" by W. H. Auden.
  • The subject of the 1957 poem "Brueghel's Two Monkeys" by Wisława Szymborska was the subject of Bruegel's painting Two Monkeys.
  • Seamus Heaney referenced Breughel in his poem "The Seed Cutters".
  • The short story "Hunters in the Snow" by Tobias Wolff is believed to have been influenced by Bruegel's painting The Hunters in the Snow.
  • The 2012 film "Museum Hours" shows Bruegel's paintings in the Kunsthistorisches Museum and they are discussed at length by a guide.
  • The 2011 Polish-Swedish film co-production The Mill and the Cross, in which Bruegel is played by Rutger Hauer was inspired by his 1564 painting The Procession to Calvary.
  • Russian film director Andrei Tarkovsky referenced Bruegel's paintings in his films several times, notably Solaris (1972) and The Mirror (1975).
