The painting is a vivid portrayal of the pageantry and valor associated with medieval tournaments, reflecting Rubens' fascination with history, nobility, and the ideals of chivalry.

The composition of the painting is masterful, with Rubens employing his renowned skill in depicting movement and emotion to bring the scene to life. The artist's use of color, light, and shadow enhances the drama and intensity of the tournament, while also providing a detailed glimpse into the architecture and landscape of 17th-century Flanders. The figures in the painting, from the knights in armor jousting on horseback to the spectators gathered to watch the event, are rendered with the anatomical precision and vitality that are characteristic of Rubens' work.

"Tournament in front of Castle Steen" is not only a testament to Rubens' artistic genius but also serves as a historical document, offering insights into the cultural and social practices of the time.
