Book Synopsis Pieter Bruegel and the Art of Laughter by : Walter S. Gibson
Book excerpt: In this delightfully engaging book, Walter S. Gibson takes a new look at Bruegel, arguing that the artist was no erudite philosopher, but a man very much in the world, and that a significant part of his art is best appreciated in the context of humour.
