One of the five senses, the sense of taste is displayed on one of the five ‘regular’ Lady and the Unicorn tapestries. The tapestry displays the lady in the center, with on her left one of her maidens. To her right is a unicorn, to her left a lion. Both are holding a coat of arms. The lady is looking at the parrot on her left hand, while taking a sweet offered by her servant. Her pet dog is watching her on her left. The whole scene is surrounded by trees, animals and flowers.

The floral design on the red background is called millefleurs, which means thousand flowers. It is a common style used in tapestries in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth century, and it helps to unify the six tapestries into one series.
