O Triunfo da Morte (c.1562) de Bruegel, o Velho (c.1525-1569)
Uma leitura sonora do macabro espetáculo artístico
Analysis of the macabre themes exposed in the famous painting The Triumph of Death (c.1562), by Bruegel the Elder (c.1525-1569). My interpretive proposal is to appreciate the images from the musical suggestions that the artist represents, and that the density of the drama of existence in the face of death can be understood more profoundly with the confrontation of the painting’s images with the musicality of the instruments and the sound of scenes.
