The Hunters In The Snow (1565)I like the artist Pieter Bruegel the Elder. He painted in the Netherlands during the 1500's. I like his composition, and the amount of information that he put into his paintings, while still leaving 'breathing room'.
When I was growing up we had a big Bruegal print on the wall, of a painting called Children's Games. It used to fascinate me, and I would just sit and stare at it; always discovering new things hidden away in some corner of the picture.

I love this painting too.
Yes, I love it! It's especially fitting after you've seen it in Austria ;) ...
I remember seeing this picture on playschool when i was younger, they had as part of the theme for the week and each day they would talk about a different aspect of it. ( that is the children's games one)
oh right.. Now that you mention it I think I vaguely remember seeing that when I was a kid. thanks for reminding me
