Pieter Bruegel the Elder, a Monograph

Description: Our digital monograph series brings together a large collection of works by a single artist providing an opportunity for students to examine a body of work in depth. Digital monographs are planned as long-term resources that may be useful for a variety of faculty, students and course offerings not only for the Department of Art History and Archæology but for the wider University community. Images of paintings, drawings, prints, sculpture, including comparative material, are arranged in instructive groupings. For example, the Pieter Bruegel the Elder monograph includes sections on paintings by decade and subject, drawings by type, and prints with associated drawings as well as comparative material. Advanced programs focus on specific aspects of individual works of art using more sophisticated technology solutions, for example Flash animation to compare a preliminary drawing with the finished painting.
