Bruegel turned his critical eye and peerless paintbrush to mankind's labors and pleasures, its foibles and rituals of daily life, portraying landscapes, peasant life, and biblical scenes in startling detail. Much like the great humanist scholar Erasmus of Rotterdam, Bruegel questioned how well we really know ourselves and also how we know, or visually read, others. His work often represented mankind's ignorance and insignificance, emphasising the futility of ambition and the absurdity of pride.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis superbly illustrated volume examines how Bruegel's art and ideas enabled people to ponder what it meant to be human. Published to coincide with the four-hundred-fiftieth anniversary of Bruegel's death, it will appeal to all those interested in art and philosophy, the Renaissance, and Flemish painting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NewSouth Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47362949120236,"sku":"9781789146752","price":44.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/27996563482824.jpg?v=1772905874"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/elizabeth-alice-honig.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
