About the piece
Painted in 1640 by Spanish master Francisco Barrera, this intricate allegory of the month of May captures the sensory richness of the Baroque era. The composition artfully arranges spring blossoms, fresh produce, and domestic objects alongside two attentive dogs, while a window provides a serene glimpse into a distant garden landscape.
