Do you mean Pieter Bruegel? Well, I am sure you do. He spelled his name Brueghel until 1559, and his sons retained the "h" in the spelling of their names. Pieter Bruegel was an artist who painted a picture with oil on canvas named Landscape with the fall of Icarus. This painting was done in 1558 and depicts a boy named Icarus falling and drowning while his surroundings, a peasant, a shepherd and a fisherman, are ignorant to the problem.

What does Pieter Brueghel's Landscape with the Fall of Icarus and W.H. Auden's Museedes Beaux have alike?

Both Pieter Brueghel's painting "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" and W.H. Auden's poem "Musée des Beaux Arts" explore the theme of human suffering and the indifference of the world to individual tragedies. They both depict the contrast between everyday life and moments of extraordinary significance, highlighting the idea that life goes on regardless of personal struggles or misfortunes.
