An Allegory of Tulipomania 

Jan Brueghel the Younger's "An Allegory of Tulipomania" depicts monkeys dressed in human attire engaging in various activities, including dining, gambling, and admiring tulips, to satirize the Dutch obsession with the flower in the 17th century. The work, a genre painting, uses animal allegory to comment on the human folly of speculative mania, the tulip craze, and the associated social and economic consequences. The scene takes place in a large, open hall, with a garden visible in the background, further highlighting the opulent and luxurious lifestyle associated with this mania.
