"Village Landscape with Emmaus Pilgrims" is an oil-on-panel painting by Flemish artist Pieter Bruegel the Elder, created circa 1555-1556. As a prominent figure of Renaissance painting, Bruegel is renowned for his detailed landscapes and sceneries depicting peasant life. This art piece exemplifies his masterful approach, which effectively blends intricate architectural representations with natural, pastoral settings.

In this artwork, Bruegel presents a panoramic and vivid depiction of a 16th-century village landscape that covers most of the painting. The primary scene unfolds in the village—depicting various elements of domestic and rural life with meticulous attention to detail. Distinct architectural elements such as houses, a church, and a windmill can be seen, reflecting the typical Flemish landscape of that period.

The biblical story of the Emmaus Pilgrims from the Gospel of Luke (24:13-35) is subtly depicted in the lower-left corner of the painting. This is where Cleopas and another disciple meet the resurrected Christ on the road to the village of Emmaus. However, in Bruegel's rendition, the biblical narrative becomes secondary to the portrayal of everyday life and the detailed landscape, demonstrating the artist's innovative approach to visual storytelling.

With its rich display of rural life and understated rendition of a biblical narrative, "Village Landscape with Emmaus Pilgrims" is considered one of the characteristic works in Bruegel's oeuvre. He specializes in painting scenes wherein biblical events are embedded within landscapes populated by ordinary people showing the natural blend of sacred and secular in the life of his contemporaries. This approach later came to be known as the "world landscape", a genre that Bruegel pioneered and that had a significant influence on the future of Western landscape art.
