Massive Oak Bruegal Buffet Sideboard
The greatest of the Flemish sixteenth-century masters of genre was Pieter Bruegel the Elder. We know little of his life except that he had been to Italy, like so many northern artists of his time, and that he lived and worked in Antwerp and Brussels, where he painted most of his pictures in the 1560s. The 'kind' of painting on which Bruegel concentrated was scenes from peasant life. He painted groups of peasants, merrymaking, feasting, working and going about the tasks of their daily lives. The furniture that bears his name is usually adorned with this type of carving, as is this incredible buffet. This wonderful buffet is a simple example of his work. Gorgeous paneling featuring carved scenes accent the front! This type of carving is very time consuming and is most definitely done by hand. Other features such as cup and saucer legs and spacious cabinets elevate this piece from commonality to a state of exquisite grace! Imagine how wonderful it would look in your dining room! This is the perfect piece to impress all your dinner guests when entertaining. However you decide to use this piece you are sure to fall in love with her old world beauty!
