content: An allegory for the sense of smell featuring figures in a landscape around a garden wall with a vase of flowers. A man and woman lean against the wall in the center, the man holding a flower to the woman. A young gardener stands to the right, looking at the couple, holding a basket of flowers and leaning on a rake. In the background trees, flowers and birds are flying above. The plate is titled and signed.
