The Euro image is far more about the landscape itself. The US image is about power: Link, sword drawn, is going to tame this landscape. It reminds me of the Hobbits setting out on their journey in The Lord of the Rings. The European version looks like a picture someone took of Link while he was on a nice walk through the highlands. To me, the US version looks like a movie poster. My view is the US version is going for a more traditional open world action role-playing game box art, whereas our version leans more on the sense of adventure and exploration. But our version features birds as if they're flying in front of the camera and as such, are out of focus. Here's an odd difference: the US version has some birds in the distance. In our version, Link's shield is resting on his back and his sword is held as if a walking stick. The US version sees Link with sword and shield at the ready. He looks at us from an over the shoulder, side on angle. It's a similar scene, except the colour palette is different, the horizon is different and Link is standing on a patch of grass rather than on a rock. There are mountains in the distance, a shining light from what looks like a castle. We see series star Link standing on a rock and staring at the horizon. Let's start with the box art for the North American version. It turns out Europe's The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild box art is a little different than North America's.
