The work is emblematic of the Baroque period's fascination with allegory and the personification of the arts.

The painting depicts the allegorical figures of Painting and Sculpture in a dynamic interplay, illustrating the interconnectedness and harmony between these two art forms. Painting is often represented by a female figure, as seen in this work, holding a palette and brushes, symbols of her craft.
