Abstract: In his article Tokmachev discusses the painting manner of a Netherlandish painter Pieter Bruegel the Elder. According to the author of the article, his style represents the shift in the consciousness of some Europeans from religious world view to the humanistic perception of the world. The present article was written as a preface of the author to the article on Bruegel's creative work published by an Italian art critic A. Bovey and translated by the author of the present article into the Russian language. The translation of A. Bovey's article is also included. The emphasis is made on the relationship between philosophy of neoplatonism which, according to the author, is similar to the Medieval and Renaissance worldview and painting styles and rationalism that replaced those in the Modern Period. The shift from neoplatonism to rationalism is viewed as the projection of the worldview from the multi-layer 'iconic space' of Chora (expression by A. Lidova and Jacques Derrida) to the empiric sensual diversity. Humanism is viewed as a post apocalyptic stage of religious consciousness. According to the author, Bruegel's painting symbolizes the break from the traditional Catholic aesthetics and discovery of new Protestant aesthetics. Humanism and experimental natural sciences replaced mythology and metaphysics. However, such technological approach to art without metaphysics turns painting into photography and human into homunculus.
