Breigel' - Roke K.

There are few personalities as mysterious and ambiguous in the history of art as the hero of this book Peter Bruegel the Elder - a figure of mysterious, almost mystical Creativity of the great Dutch artist - the subject of long-standing art history Discussion. A form invented by K.-A. Roque for this study, allows to combine, which is rare enough, the view of the scientist and the view of the poet, feeling and intelligence. This biography is, in fact, a dialogue of two worthy interlocutors - an artist of a distant era, speaking through his works, and a contemporary artist trying to understand it. You open the book because you love Bruegel's paintings, and you close with the feeling that you have gained much more than you wanted. This is greatly facilitated by the wonderful translation of T. Baskanova.
