EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of bravery and determination through a timeless allegory. Entitled "Give me a suit of armour and I become bold enough to bell the cat" this masterpiece was created in 1558 by Pieter Bruegel the Elder, one of the most renowned artists from the Early Netherlandish art movement. The painting depicts a scene filled with symbolism and mythology, showcasing Bruegel's exceptional storytelling abilities. The central figure stands tall, adorned in an impressive suit of armor that represents newfound courage. Inspired by an ancient fable, this artwork explores themes of bravery and taking risks despite overwhelming odds. Displayed at the Museum Mayer van den Bergh in Antwerp, Belgium, this oil on wood painting showcases Bruegel's mastery in capturing intricate details and vibrant colors. Through his brushstrokes, he brings to life twelve proverbs that resonate even today. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of fine art imagery from Flanders, we are reminded that sometimes it takes extraordinary measures to face our fears head-on. This photograph print serves as a powerful reminder that when equipped with confidence and protection like a suit of armor, we can conquer any challenge before us.
