    That piece represents quite a nice freedom or birthing spirit.

    But not too happy at the same time.

    Only to 1559. then he dropped the H. The painting is dated to 1559, so whether he had an H when he began or finished it we don't know. Same chap (or cap) anyway.

    Bingo, Bruegel: The Fight between Carnival and Lent was right. My history professor posted this picture on our class site and had students guess who the artist/title was and thanks to you guys, I get a Hershey's candy bar tommorow. Again, thanks a lot!
