Pictures from Brueghel and Other Poems is a 1962 book of poems by the American modernist poet/writer William Carlos Williams. [1] It was Williams's final book, [2] for which he posthumously won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1963. [3] Two previously published collections of poetry are included: The Desert Music and Other Poems from 1954 and Journey to Love from 1955. [4]
Pieter Brueghel the Elder was a Flemish painter (born c. 1525–1530, died 1569), [5] famous for pictures of peasant life. This book opens with the title cycle of ten poems (the last poem is in three parts), each based on a Brueghel painting. [2]
