Next to him is a 'noble' peasant of Clivia, wearing a jerkin with pleated skirt and bow trimmings on the shoulders, over a doublet with long puff sleeves, padded hose, stockings, flat shoes, and a tall felt hat with short brim.

In the center is a peasant of Brabant in 'vulgar' dress, made up of a doublet with pleated skirt and long puff sleeves, tight hose and a codpiece, flat shoes, and a hat with rounded crown, short brim, and a pair of feathers.
