The work dated 1559 is called The Strugglebetween Carnival and Fasting (No. 716), andshows the Flemish masquerade of Shrove Tuesday.The principal figures are a well-rounded boniface,sitting astride a beer-barrel and holding a toasting-spit like a lance before him, and a doleful lookingperson sitting on a chair on rollers, which is beingpulled and pushed by monks and nuns. The on^slaught which the merry crew that pushes the beer-barrel will make on the order of the bread-shovelmay be imagined. There is an inexhaustible fundof humour in this picture, and as much in the arrayof Playing Children (No. 708), painted theyear following.

The little panel called TheBird-thief (No. 718) is a jewel of execution.On a space of 23 x 28 inches a scene is portrayedin a landscape that seems to stretch for miles. Ahusky farmer has detected a boy in one of his trees,and points threateningly towards him with a stick.Still smaller in size, but with an equal sweep oflandscape, is the Battle between the Israelites andPhilistines (No. 721), where the two hosts aredepicted in an inextricable mass, while Saul andhis armour-bearer fall on their swords. The Wayto the Cross (No. 712) is of larger size, againwith a mixed multitude of people, and an exquisitelandscape. And so we might go on. All the num-bers, from 708 to 721, present features that arouseour astonishment and demand our admiration. The painting which I have selected to illustrateBreughels work is called Winter (No. 713.PlNote About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work.
