Massacre of the Innocents (Bruegel)

Several oil-on-oak-panel versions of The Massacre of the Innocents were painted by the 16th-century Netherlandish painters Pieter Bruegel the Elder and his son Pieter Brueghel the Younger. The work translates the biblical account of the Massacre of the Innocents into a winter scene set in the Southern Netherlands on the eve of the Dutch Revolt against Spanish rule, also known as the Eighty Years' War.
