EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Pieter Brueghel the Younger's masterpiece, "The Census at Bethlehem". Painted between 1610 and 1620, this oil on panel artwork is a remarkable reproduction of the original by his father, Pieter Brueghel the Elder. Housed in the Palais des Beaux-Arts de Lille in France, this particular version omits the iconic big trunk tree and solar disc found in other renditions. In this scene depicting a biblical census, we are transported to Bethlehem during winter. The artist skillfully captures daily life as people journey through snow-covered streets with their animals and carts. The central focus lies on Virgin Mary and Joseph as they navigate through the town seeking shelter for the imminent birth of Jesus. Brueghel's Flemish style shines through every detail of this painting. From homemade games played by children on ice to donkeys pulling wagons laden with supplies, each element adds depth and authenticity to the scene. This artwork not only serves as a visual representation of an important Bible story but also provides insight into Flemish culture during that era. Kim Young Tae's expert photography beautifully captures every brushstroke and color palette used by Brueghel. Through his lens, we can appreciate both the historical significance and artistic brilliance behind "The Census at Bethlehem. "
