Again, a larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #1827 (November 16, 2017) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment; so, I won’t point to it here.
For a really good look at this painting, try https://www.khm.at/en/objectdb/detail/33/?offset=2&lv=list. The KHM is where the original lives. Lots of good info at https://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/aertsen/ (easier than the Google Books link above.)
