This beautiful painting, done by Netherlandish Renaissance painter Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565, was the inspiration for this downloadable cross stitch design. This painting creates a feeling of great texture in both landscape and foliage. The color yellow is dominant, with accent colors of rich red and blue in the laborers clothing. The grayish blues are muted and the deep dark greens in places appear as black. Many of Bruegel's paintings focus on the lives of Flemish commoners, and because of that, he earned the nickname of "peasant Bruegel." He was not a peasant, but was a member of a four-generation family of artists in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. This painting resides at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
