Notes:  ^^^ An astonishing tapestry depicting the hay wain allegory set in a globe (like the ID 40 panel) which floats on a body of water, framed by an elaborately detailed classical structure. On the central haywain pulled by horses (on its left) ride three demons, the one at the front of the wagon clutching a bundle of hay. A throng of people, many dressed in religious garb, pull hay from the load.

Citation:  Haverkamp Begemann, E European Drawings and Watercolors in the Yale University Art Gallery, 1500-1900. Yale UP 1970. plate 260.
Index Words:  haystack, fork, allegory
Place:  Netherlands
Notes:  ^^^ Jesters are handing hay, symbol of transitoriness and greed, to a monk, a soldier, and a young woman, obviously making fools of them.' Unlike the works of Bosch, Hogenberg and others on a similar theme, this drawing has no wheels under the hay, and so, according to Haverkamp Begemann it corresponds more closely to the the proverb ' De werelt is een hooiberg; elk plukt ervan wat hij kan krijgen (The world is a haystack and everyone grabs from it as much as he can get)' (p. 271) Another haystack allegory of greed, cited by Haverkamp Begemann but not yet seen by me, is a drawing attributed to Adriaen Pietersz Crabeth in the Albertina, Vienna.
