Invents the monumental genre scene
Having begun with religious works, in the 1550s Aertsen developed scenes in which furniture, cooking utensils and food are rendered with great flair and realism in the foreground, while the biblical subject is barely noticeable in the background; his peasant scenes preceded Pieter Bruegel the Elder's by a few years. His workshop trained Stradanus and his nephews Joachim and Huybrecht Beuckelaer.
1556–1557
Returns to Amsterdam for an Oude Kerk altarpiece
In 1556–1557 (other accounts say 1555–1556) Aertsen returned to Amsterdam, having received a commission for an altarpiece for the Oude Kerk, the Old Church. Many of his altarpieces for Catholic churches were later destroyed during the iconoclasm.
