| Biography of old oil painting master Jan Brueghel what we can copy |
|
Called the "velvet Brueghel," was the second
son of Pieter Bruegel the Elder and, like
his brother Pieter Brueghel the Younger,
made his career in Antwerp. Known for his
still lifes of flowers and for his
landscapes, Jan Brueghel was a friend of Peter Paul
Rubens and collaborated with him in
paintings such as Adam and Eve in Paradise.
Jan Brueghel specialized in small wooded scenes that
were finely finished and brightly colored.
His style was perpetuated by his sons Jan
Brueghel II (1601-78) and Ambrosius Brueghel
(1617-75), whose sons carried on the
tradition into the 18th century. |
