长者皮特·布鲁盖尔是佛兰德文艺复兴时期一位富有创造力的画家和版画家，以他那广阔的山水和农民的景色而闻名。他早年与画家皮特·克罗克·凡·艾尔斯特（Pieter Croecke van Aelst）当过学徒，1551年，26岁左右，他被安特卫普的一个画家协会接纳为大师。他的昵称是“农民布鲁盖尔”，因为他经常穿上农民的衣服，参加社交聚会和婚礼，以便与当地人交往，并为他的绘画获得见解和灵感。他还有其他两位著名的佛兰德画家，年轻的皮特·布鲁盖尔和长者的简·布鲁盖尔，尽管人们认为他们不是由他们的父亲教导的，因为他在他们小的时候就去世了。作为荷兰体裁绘画的先驱，他描绘了16世纪社会生活的方方面面，其中许多是农民的绘画，带有很大的风景元素。他的许多作品展示了荷兰大师画家博世的影响。他还在他的画中创作了一些最早的社会评论形式，据说他临终前躺在床上要求焚烧最具颠覆性的画，以便他的家人避免政治迫害。

Pieter Brueghel the Elder was an innovative Flemish Renaissance painter and printmaker, known for his sweeping landscapes and peasant scenes. He was apprenticed early in his life to painter Pieter Croecke van Aelst, and in 1551 around the age of 26 he as accepted into a painter’s guild in Antwerp as a master painter.
His nickname was “Peasant Brueghel,” as he would often don peasant’s clothing and attend social gatherings and weddings, in order to mingle and interact with the locals, and gain insight and inspiration for his paintings. He also fathered two other prominent Flemish painters, Pieter Brueghel the Younger and Jan Brueghel the Elder, although it is thought that they were not taught by their father, as he died when they were young children.
As a pioneer in Netherlandish genre painting, he portrayed social aspects of 16th century life, many of which were paintings of peasants, with a large landscape element. Many of his works show the influence of Heironymous Bosch, the Dutch master painter. He also created some of the earliest form of social commentary in his paintings, and reportedly asked while laying on his deathbed to have the most subversive of the paintings burned, in order for his family to avoid political persecution.
