專家說明

This picture depicts a subject derived from a traditional Flemish proverb, intended as a warning to not 'waste effort on the unworthy'. Like his father Pieter Brueghel the Elder, Pieter the Younger found inspiration in the vernacular pastimes of Flemish society and scenes of peasant life. Brueghel and his circle painted a number of these small round panels, indicating that the subjects resonated with a wide audience.
