The segment enlargements are superb Most competitive books just show the full painting. For the details of the paintings I found comments in Bruegel by Wolfgang Stechow to be more detailed. Even better was researching The Battle Between Carnival and Lent and Children's Games on the web at sites specializing in art and historical paintings.
This beautifully illustrated volume presents twelve world-famous masterpieces shown in full color, both in their entirety and in close-up detail.. Pieter Bruegel the Elder (c.1528/30–1569) is famous for having elevated the status of landscape painting. He is also considered to be the greatest sixteenth-century Flemish master of scenes from ordinary life
