謝肉祭と四旬節の争い
1550 - 1560
Bruegel was a master of mocking human folly, and this piece is a hilarious showdown. On the left, a ridiculously round, doughy face—representing the gluttony of Carnival—stares blankly. On the right, two scrawny, witch-like profiles lean in aggressively, embodying the stingy, ascetic spirit of Lent. It's a visual joke about the eternal battle between partying and piety, capturing the artist's signature wit and obsession with caricatures.
