How it represents a deadly sin - This painting shows some sort of marriage that is going on within a family. The coat of arm in the background represents this family’s symbol. The colors that are used focus mostly on red and brown undertones which relate to envy. The man holding the flowers seems angry and jealous of those who are getting married. Simply because he is not the one marrying the women.
