As Above, So Below

Peter Bruegel and his colorful world brought to life Bruegel's paintings--a peasant wedding in a barn, hunters in the snow, a rollicking street festival--define our idea of everyday life in sixteenth century Northern Europe. In sixteen chapters, each headed by one of the artist's famous works, Rudy Rucker brings Bruegel's art and his colorful world to vibrant life, doing for Bruegel what the bestselling Girl With A Pearl Earring did for Vermeer.
