Can someone provide a detailed picture of an Ethereum Patricia Tree?

Question

I am looking for a diagram of a Patricia tree which shows the details of multiple blocks, with multiple transactions in each block. I want to see an actual example of how the chain of blocks will be represented, so I can understand how all of the components will be created i.e. header, extension, branch, leaf etc. It would be great if someone could provide that detailed picture.

I came across this diagram (i.e. the one showing extension branch & leaf). This diagram seems to be showing details of only one block with multiple transactions. I am looking for a diagram offering similar details but with multiple blocks, each involving multiple transactions.

I think the below picture might be the closest you will get. It can be found in this answer to a previous question:

Ethereum block architecture

Note that the purpose of this diagram is to show how the state tries for different blocks are related. The transaction tries are rather more straightforward. (i.e. They're just standalone, non-interacting data structures).

As an aside, to search for posts containing pictures on Stack Exchange, you can use something like url:"*.png" as the search term. (You can change the file extension for other picture types.)

[As a second aside, this picture from the post you linked to is, to be honest, amazing, though again, for the state.]
