Answer
Pieter Bruegel the Elder was a Flemish painter, draughtsman, and printmaker, who is considered to be one of the most important figures of the Northern Renaissance. His work is often characterized by its grotesque and satirical depictions of human nature, and his use of symbolism and allegory. Bruegel was influenced by the work of Hieronymus Bosch, and his paintings often share Bosch's interest in the macabre and the grotesque.
