• Resumen

  • Four scattered paintings by Hieronymus Bosch originally belonged to an allegorical triptych. Scientific evidence has shown that the paintings, The Ship of Fools (Louvre, Paris), The Allegory of Intemperance (Yale University Art Gallery, New Haven), Death of the Miser (National Gallery of Art, Washington), and The Peddler (Museum Boymans–van Beuningen, Rotterdam), stem from the same tree trunk. The triptych's middle panel is missing. The writer examines the four works and shows how they come together to form an allegory of wastefulness and miserliness.
