Pieter the Elder, a renowned artist of the 16th century, left an indelible mark on the art world with his masterpieces. One such masterpiece is "The Harvesters" painted in 1565 by Pieter Bruegel the Elder.

Another notable work is "Patience (Patientia)" created in 1557 by Pieter van der Heyden. This piece depicts a woman patiently waiting, symbolizing endurance and perseverance in challenging times.

Philip Galle's engraving titled "The Death of the Virgin" from 1574 explores themes of grief and mourning surrounding Mary's passing. It evokes emotions while capturing religious devotion.
