The hand behind it
Pieter Brueghel the Younger
Pieter Brueghel the Younger brought his father’s pictures to a much wider public. His Antwerp workshop produced faithful, brightly coloured versions of the elder Bruegel’s most popular compositions, winter landscapes with skaters, proverbs, village scenes and the Adoration of the Magi in the snow, along with lively peasant scenes of his own. He was born in Brussels in 1564 and was only a small child when his father died. He set up his studio in Antwerp around 1589, and it produced some 1,400 paintings; his Winter Landscape with Skaters and a Bird Trap exists in at least 60 versions. Frans Snyders was among his apprentices. He was nicknamed Hell Brueghel because he was thought to have painted fiery, grotesque scenes, though these are now given to his brother Jan. He died in Antwerp in 1638. Fight Between Carnival and Lent is a good example of how closely he followed his father’s crowded compositions.

Questions
How is the finish priced?
The price you see is the painting at the size you chose, in the finish you chose, and it updates as you change either. Rolled arrives in a protective tube, ready for local framing. Stretched arrives on wooden bars, ready to hang. Framed arrives in its frame, ready to hang. Stretched and framed go up to 60 × 90 cm (24 × 36 in); larger paintings travel rolled.
How long does it take?
Painting begins after you order and takes 3 to 4 weeks, including drying and the photo you approve. Delivery then takes 4 to 10 working days to most countries. More on delivery times.
Will it look exactly like the original?
It is painted by a person, so no. Brushwork varies between copies, which is the difference between a painting and a poster.
What if I do not like it?
Ninety days from delivery, full refund.
Can I get Village Lawyer in a different size or shape?
Yes. Village Lawyer is painted to the size you want, in the original’s proportions, or adapted to another shape on request. Stretched and framed go up to 60 x 90 cm (24 x 36 in). The original measures 54.7 x 87.5 cm (21.5 x 34.4 in).
