Notes
English: Rubens painted the figures, and his friend Bruegel painted the ornaments. The statue in the center represents the 'Great Mother' or 'Mother Earth'. The fat old man in the foreground is Silenus. In 1621 Jan Bruegel the Elder wrote to Cardinal Federigo Borromeo: I have sent many paintings to the King of Poland who likes our work. The letter of Juan de Arrazola Oñate, the secretary of infanta Isabella of September 18, 1619 in which he turned to the general treasurer Monsieur Monfort to release from customs paintings sent by Jan Brueghel the Elder to Poland, confirms the commission of Sigismund III Vasa (6 landscapes, 9 portraits including portraits of archduke Albret and Infanta Isabella and other European monarchs, 3 large battalistic pictures).
