landscape with fall of Icarus

In the picture of “landscape with fall of Icarus” ,which was painted by Pieter Bruegel, there are many shapes in the sky, such as yellow, light green and some blue. The yellow part seems to show that is the sun rising or falling. Also, the blue color may descried cloudy and the background looks like the late of 19th century, because the boats are the old style of creating and people’s feeding, farming and clothes. On the top left side, I see a small city build between the ocean and the huge mountain. It’s flourished and far away from the village on the front of painting. Approaching the front of image, there is a woman who wears some old clothes and field machine which is tied by a house. They are going other where through the way with some big trees. Meanwhile, it shows most of mountains are without lots of plants, just have few tree which are not really exuberant growth. In addition, there’s a man who looks a middle-age, and many animals surround him, maybe those are sheep. The man raises his head and looks up to the sky and he has a dog beside him. He maybe is a farmer, and pat attention to sky that seems to have something special happened. When I turn eyes to the right side in the bottom, I see a big sailing boat and the water waves higher because of a person who drops into the sea. Furthermore, there is a man stay at bank edge to try helping. I think he want to save that person. At last, I also see the large area with painting green and some boats that are different sizes and direction. Those are the things what I see in this image.
