Jan Brueghel the Elder (1568-1625). Flemish painter. Son of Pieter Brueghel the Elder and father of Jan Brueghel the Younger. He is famous for his still life paintings with flowers (one of them can even be found in Prague). For his favourite theme, he is called "flowery" Brueghel, and possibly for his favourite material, he is also called "velvety." Unlike his brother Pieter Brueghel the Younger, he developed a personalized and nuanced style of painting, distinct from his father’s. Many of his paintings originated through collaborations with other artists (for example, he painted figures into other artist’s landscapes and vice versa).
