Allegory of Avarice
Artist: Jacopo Ligozzi (Italian, 1547–1627)
Original Dimensions: 54 7/8" x 33 1/4"
Location: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
About Artwork: (not listed) "In 1590 Ligozzi created a series of elaborate, allegorical drawings of the Seven Deadly Sins (six still exist). This painting, which is a fragment, depicts the central figures of the allegory of Avarice, the drawing for which is in the National Gallery, Washington. As described in emblem books, Avarice is shown as a pale woman holding a bag of money. The threatening skeleton suggests that the artist was inspired as well by other representations of the vice in either literature (perhaps Dante) or the visual arts." - (The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
