The painting of customs is a genre in which popular types and attitudes, behaviors, values and habits common to a concrete group of the population, region or class are described by means of the description, satirical, nostalgic or narrative, of the atmospheres, customs, clothes, parties and diversions, traditions, trades and representative types of a society.
