Brussels Museum of Fine Arts

Pieter Bruegel the Elder (ca 1525-1569), The Fall of the Rebel Angels, 1562, detail, oil on oak
De Val van de opstandige Engelen, detail.

A human head trumpeting against Archangel Michael, is grafted onto a tailed body made of tiny red bubbles, partly enclosed in a cuirass and a pair of shells. Below, a toad-like creature with bird legs has its belly torn up, exposing its inside eggs.
