1634
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Pieter Bruegel the Younger is a 1634 ink by Anthony van Dyck, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a bearded man in a loose, rumpled shirt. His face is turned slightly away, and his hands rest near his chest. The lines are rough and uneven, giving it a sketchy, unfinished look. The name "Pieter Bruegel" is signed at the bottom, but this is actually a portrait of someone else. The artist used quick, bold strokes to capture the man’s expression.
