Catalan term or phrase: lectures cabals
I'm translating a title for an article in Catalan on a famous painting that says, "Lectures cabals i delirants del JARDÍ DE LES DELÍCIES..."
I'd appreciate help on what lectures cabals could mean in reference to readings on a painting. Thanks!

I think I have misunderstood the term.
The right word would be "Comprehensive readings". Salutacions.
