Gillis Mostaert's oil on panel, painted between 1570 and 1580, showcases the precise brushwork characteristic of late 16th-century Flemish art. The smooth surface allows for the intricate details of this vast allegorical scene to shine. At its heart, a hay-wagon, driven by devils, symbolizes earthly possessions, with people from all walks of life scrambling greedily for its contents. To the left, Death, the Pope, and knights are depicted, while to the right, a procession carries a church model alongside beggars, some with disabilities. This powerful work critiques the abuses of both secular and ecclesiastical authorities
