Painted in 1852 during the Romanticism period, this artwork is housed in the prestigious Museo Lazaro Galdiano in Madrid. The image portrays a scene filled with symbolism and allegory, depicting the destructive nature of wealth and abundance. Through meticulous brushstrokes, Velazquez captures the essence of avarice, showcasing its corrupting influence on society.
