He is nicknamed 'Peasant Brueghel' to distinguish him from other members of the Brueghel dynasty, but is also the one generally meant when the context does not make clear which "Brueghel" is being referred to.
We are not sure when Brueghel was born, but in his later years Brueghel painted in a simpler style than the Italianate art that prevailed in his time.
Brueghel created some of the early images of acute social protest in art history, in paintings like The Fight Between Carnival and Lent (a satire of the conflicts of the Reformation) and engravings like The Ass in the School and Strongboxes Battling Piggybanks.

In the foreground, Brueghel concentrates on a stretch of road which is elevated like a theatrical tribune, allowing him to depict the gestures, expressions and attitudes of the figures in detail, capturing the essence of the actors in this scene.
At the centre, a group of peasants are managing to muster the energy to launch into a frenzied folk dance to the music of the bagpipes, while, at the right, a woman is desperately trying to revive her husband who is obviously quite tipsy.

 Pieter Brueghel the Younger, Return from the Inn: The Burden of Legacy (CUJAH)
Although his father died when he was somewhere between the ages of one and three, Pieter Brueghel’s work has always been overshadowed by his more famous father’s artistic legacy.
The works of his younger brother, Jan, who inherited this same legacy, have escaped this treatment to a much greater degree, probably because he moved away from his father’s subjects into studies of still lifes (particularly of flowers) and landscapes.
Yet Pieter the Younger produced a vast number of paintings which warrant serious study on their own merits.
