Avarice, the Danger of Riches

In the foreground on the left, Riches (Divitiae), surrounded by money chests and supplies. Dressed as a merchant, he holds a money bag in his right hand, which he offers to a woman and her family. On the right in the foreground, Greed (Avaritia). She is dressed as an old woman and buries her treasures under a tree. In the background on the left, the building of a house with diligent workers everywhere. On the right, a slum with beggars. The print has an inscription in Dutch, Latin and French in verses. The verses praise riches as the use of God's gifts, but condemn greed as a grave sin.
