Peasant Fashion in the Low Countries: Stage 2; Frans Verbeeck

Aaah, Frans Verbeeck, born 1510 and died 1570.  Or at least his studio/family, since we don't know in most cases as to which Frans Verbeeck, and it wasn't uncommon for their paintings to be unsigned.  Their style is...unique, although likely inspired by Heironymus Bosch, and have similar forms of exaggeration and satire.  Even so, not all of it is useless for this survey.  I am not a fan of the artistic style, tbh.
