"The Sermon of St. John the Baptist (detail 2)" is a notable work by the Flemish Renaissance painter Pieter Bruegel the Elder, created in 1566. This painting is part of a larger composition that depicts the biblical scene of St. John the Baptist preaching to a crowd. Bruegel is renowned for his intricate landscapes and genre paintings that often include moral or allegorical messages, and this work is no exception. It is characterized by its detailed portrayal of the figures and the landscape, as well as its use of color and light to draw attention to the central event.

In the painting, St. John the Baptist is seen delivering his sermon, yet he is not the immediate focus of the scene. Instead, Bruegel has placed him off-center, allowing the viewer to observe the varied reactions of the crowd. The diverse assembly of people represents a cross-section of 16th-century society, with figures dressed in contemporary attire, suggesting that Bruegel intended to make the biblical story relevant to his own time. This detail of the larger work showcases Bruegel's skill in capturing human character and emotion, as well as his ability to weave complex narratives through visual art.

The painting is held in high regard for its composition and the way it conveys its message through the landscape and the positioning of the figures. Bruegel's use of detail in this piece is meticulous, inviting viewers to explore each corner of the canvas to uncover new aspects of the story being told. "The Sermon of St. John the Baptist (detail 2)" is a testament to Bruegel's mastery of storytelling through painting and remains an important work for the study of Northern Renaissance art. It is housed in the Szépművészeti Múzeum (Museum of Fine Arts) in Budapest, Hungary, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
