W. H. Auden's poem 'Musée des Beaux Arts' includes a reference to the weather, specifically the sun shining on a normal day, in the story of Icarus that is not included in Pieter Brueghel's painting of the same event.

Explanation:

In comparing W. H. Auden's poem "Musée des Beaux Arts" with Pieter Brueghel's painting depicting the fall of Icarus, there are subtle differences in how each represents the story. One element Auden includes that Brueghel does not is the reference to the weather. In the poem, Auden mentions 'the sun shone as it had to on the white legs disappearing into the green water,' giving a sense of an ordinary, sunlit day where tragedy unexpectedly occurs. Brueghel's Icarus painting, however, does not provide this context.
