Harvest Scene How many peasant women do you see harvesting grain? Can you stand and bend and move as they are doing as they cut the grain? What is the main in the foreground doing? What is on the oxen’s back? What colors are the oxen’s heads? What do you see in the background? Can you find any shadows?

  7. Pieter Bruegel[1525 - 1569]was born in a place that is now part Holland and part Belgium. He was well-educated, cultured man, and an original thinker.
