Indeed, those classic paintings turned into album covers all have so much detail to them, that it's hard to make a perfect patch, Morbid Angel's Blessed are the Sick is another prime example of that.
Indeed, both of them are paintings, the IV Crusade is a painting by by Eugène Delacroix titled Entry of the Crusaders into Constantinople, and the Blessed are the Sick is a painting called The Treasures of Satan by Jean Delville

Yeah that is very true, Bathory Blood Fire Death would have similar issue.
