I have a collection of tracks (album). I added .jpg (photo of cover) to the collection.
You added .jpg to the collection by saving it to each file?
...yes to .jpg, maybe .png, no to .pdf.

Do you just want them to show in Art & Details panel as they play from track to track?

there is a small pic of cover which isn't big enough to be readable, or i can make a large, essentially full screen of the cover, which then covers the tracks. How can I simply show the art in a large enough window on screen with the track list.
Are you displaying above mentioned view and still not seeing art? You can make it full screen by double clicking that view panel. How small are you talking, 100x100 or smaller? Typically you would want a minimum of 500x500. 1000x1000 is probably
more what you would want.

It requires it or that is just the way you want it/have it. MM4 can't display more than one pic at a time. No slideshow, no left or right arrows to manually move images along. The only thing with MM4 is to right click Art View panel and choose various pics you have saved to files.
