JPEG file comment

Notes This composition is unusual in Pieter II's oeuvre in that it is neither a direct copy of one of his father's compositions nor an adaptation of a Bruegel-like composition by one of his father's contemporaries - such as Martin van Cleve - or close followers. Indeed the Payment of Tithes is noticeably different from Pieter I's compositional, figural and facial types, and its derivation has therefore been the subject of much discussion. Georges Marlier's early death sadly prevented his discussing it in his monograph on the artist, and it was his posthumous editor, Jacqueline Folie, who first tackled the question in print in the catalogue of the 1993 Bonnefanten Museum exhibition Pieter Brueghel de Jonge. Folie proposed on the basis of visual clues that the lost prototype was French. One obvious clue was the fact that the calendar on the wall is written in French, although she conceded that the implication of this was undermined by the fact that French was at the time the language of the legal profession in the Netherlands; in addition, however, she noted that the peasants' short beards and close-cropped hair, as well as their costumes, were of a type not seen at the time in the Southern Netherlands (see O. Rogeau, 'Tu vas parler, Brueghel!', Le Vif. L'Express, 14 June 2002, pp. 32-3). Folie's proposal was supported by Ingeborg Krueger (... nimbt Gelt, Buter, Hüner, Endten ...' Zu Darstellungen des Bauernadvocaten von Pieter Brueghel d.J. und anderen', Das Rheinische Landesmuseum Bonn, Berichte aus der Arbeit des Museums, 3, 1995, 3, pp. 78-85), whilst Klaus Ertz, in his 2000 catalogue raisonné of Brueghel's work, hypothesized that the original might be a lost painting by the French artist Nicolas Bau
