"Allegories," a series of paintings exhibited at the Prado Museum in Madrid, is one of the collaborations between Jan Brueghel the Elder and Rubens. It is a composition of paintings that represent the allegory of the five senses: sight, taste, smell, touch, and hearing.
It is characterized by the perfection and precision of the brushstrokes and by the exquisite representation of the figures.
As is typical in Flemish painting, since earlier times with the Van Eyck brothers, attention to detail becomes a work of miniaturist painting.
