The Peasant Wedding Dance has long been recognised as one of the most popular works in Pieter Brueghel the Younger's oeuvre. Over sixty extant versions have been assigned to his hand, about half of them being fully autograph.
Although no painting by him has come down to us, the composition of the Peasant Wedding Dance clearly originated with the artist's father, Pieter Bruegel the Elder, for it is recorded by an engraving in reverse by Pieter van der Heyden which was published by Hieronymous Cock.
