The Land of Cockaigne (Bruegel)

''Het Luilekkerland'' (Dutch, "the lazy-luscious-land"〔Rucker, Rudy. (2002). ''(The Life of Bruegel: Notes )''. Accessed January 12, 2010.〕) — known in English as ''The Land of Cockaigne'' — is a 1567 oil painting by Flemish artist Pieter Bruegel the Elder (''c.'' 1525–1569). In medieval times, Cockaigne was a mythical land of plenty, but Bruegel's depiction of Cockaigne and its residents is not meant to be a flattering one. He chooses rather a comic illustration of the spiritual emptiness believed to derive from gluttony and sloth, two of the seven deadly sins.〔Martin, Elaine. (1998). "''(The Land of Cockaigne )''", in ''(Representations of Food and Eating in the Works of Bruegel the Elder )''. Accessed January 12, 2010.〕
==Description==
In the painting, a clerk, a peasant farmer, and a soldier lie dozing on the ground underneath a table bound to a tree. The clerk's book, papers, ink and pen lie idle, as do the peasant's flail and the soldier's lance and gauntlet. A half-eaten egg in its shell runs between the peasant and the clerk. The table attached to the tree is laden with partly consumed food and drink. Behind the tree, a roasted fowl lays itself upon a silver platter, implying that it is ready to be eaten, and a roasted pig runs about with a carving knife already slipped under its skin. On the left, a knight emerges from a lean-to whose roof is covered in dishes of pie and pastry, with an open mouth, waiting for the roasted pigeon to fly in (the pigeon was accidentally removed during restoration work). On the right and behind the main action, a man clutching a spoon forces his way out of a large cloud of pudding, having eaten his way through it; he reaches for the bent branch of a tree in order to lower himself into Cockaigne. The fence enclosing the main scene behind the dozing trio is made of interwoven sausages. A partly eaten wheel of cheese and a bush (or tower) of loaves of bread are on the left and right of the scene, respectively.
