Abstract
A thinly painted panel painting attributed to Pieter Bruegel the Elder, at Copenhagen’s Statens Museum for Kunst (SMK), illustrates The Strife of Lent
with Shrove-Tide. It is signed ‘BRVEGHEL·1562’ and depicts three faces modelled over an underdrawing in red chalk. This contribution argues for a firm attribution of the painting to Pieter Bruegel the Elder, founded on the results from thorough technical analyses, including dendrochronology, infrared reflectography, X-radiography, SEM-EDX and XRF. The terminus post quem provided by the felling date of the tree used for the panel matches Bruegel’s lifetime, and examination by infrared reflectography revealed a hitherto unobserved signature and date in the upper-right corner of the painting
that corresponds with the dendrochronological result.
The long scholarly debate on the attribution of the painting is also addressed through a study of the painting’s provenance and attribution history.
