Title: Bruegel and Italy / Bruegel & l'Italia -Proceedings of the International Conference held in the Academia Belgica in Rome, 26-28 September 2019.
Description: Peeters Leuven,, 2023 softcover, 245 pages, 25x 17cm. ISBN 9789042950306. ¶ Studia Academiae Belgicae, nr. 3 / In 2019, in commemoration of Pieter Bruegel's death 450 years ago, the Academia Belgica dedicated an international symposium to Bruegel and Italy. The proceedings of this scientific meeting have now been published in the most recent volume of the Acta Academiae Belgicae. Although Bruegel spent about two years in the peninsula, remarkably little of his Italian artistic production has been preserved and the impact of Bruegel's encounter with Italy is not immediately noticeable in his oeuvre. Why then did Bruegel go to Italy? To formulate possible answers, the authors consider not only the master and his work, but also the cultural and artistic exchange between Italy and the Low Countries before, during and after his Italian journey. They trace the conditions, traditions and networks that motivated and shaped Bruegel's dialogue with Italy, thus opening new paths in the research of this famous but very undocumented artist.
