Сборщики урожая

1565 г.

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 613

Картина изображает августовский и сентябрьский сбор урожая: работники, прервавшиеся на обед в тени дерева, забавляющиеся вдали фигуры, корабли, отплывающие из порта. Тонко чувствуя природные формы, Брейгель обозначил переломный момент в истории западного искусства, в котором религиозный мотив, присущий пейзажной живописи, был вытеснен в пользу нового гуманизма. Сцена, воссозданная Брейгелем, основана на наблюдении природы и человеческой деятельности и далека от идеализации. Обширность панорамы большей части композиции обнаруживает особое внимание Брейгеля не к работам, завершающим сезон, а к атмосфере и изменениям пейзажа как такового. Эта работа — часть серии из шести картин, изображающих времена года — была заказана Брейгелю антверпенским торговцем Николасом Йонгелинком.

Summer Interns: New Connections in the Permanent Collection

When you visit the Met this summer, you will likely come across one of our twenty-two lilac-badged Summer College Interns—assisting visitors at one of the Information Desks (sometimes in a language other than English), lugging monographs out of Watson Library, or taking a break in the shade of Big Bambú. Or you may see us—and even join us—as we lead guided tours of the permanent collection.

Composing a Landscape

Study the relationship between the human and natural worlds in art, as well as the techniques artists use to convey ideas, by exploring a painting by Frederic Edwin Church in the Museum's American Wing. Extend the lesson through a writing and drawing activity in the classroom, or a sketching activity outdoors.
