"Songs of Earth" is one of the paintings from the series "Allegories of White".
Each allegory is a visual poem, a game, a puzzle, a maze- where symbols, lightly touching each other, form the anticipation of the unnamed hidden meaning. Allegory uses personification, an anthropomorphic metaphor to depict a concept, an idea- abstraction is represented as a person.
The figure of the painting is a metaphor for Earth, whose songs are flowers, as well as a metaphor for a singing person, whose voice is visualized through flowers, and a metaphor for a speaking person, the beauty of whose words is compared with flowers.
