Pieter Bruegel the Elder. The Miracle in the Snow
Collection Oskar Reinhart "Am Römerholz" Winterthur
It is snowing! Attention centres on the first painting in European art with falling snowflakes, The Adoration of the Magi in the Snow by Pieter Bruegel the Elder. The Flemish artist revolutionised painting: new technological investigations attempt to get to the bottom of the timeless fascination of his paintings.
description
With his innovative pictorial ideas, including his impressive winter scenes, Pieter Bruegel the Elder became the role model for succeeding generations of artists. In interaction with rarely exhibited printed graphics and extensive technological investigations, the publication studies the directness of his pictures which continues to fascinate to this day. The accompanying catalogue was produced in cooperation with an international team of experts and the Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien.
