Summary: From Van Eyck to Bruegel, artists of the Northern Renaissance focused on detailed realism and everyday life. Jan van Eyck was known for his precise technique and symbolic detail, often including animals to convey religious or moral meanings. By the time of Pieter Bruegel the Elder, art shifted toward scenes of ordinary people, landscapes, and nature, with animals playing natural roles in daily life. Overall, this period shows a move from symbolic, religious imagery to more realistic and human-centered subjects.
