Abstract: "A procession of the rich; a horse-drawn open-top golden carriage travels to the left, surrounded by figures personifying traits of the rich, many with bloated bellies; Fortune sits on top of carriage, slinging gold coins around her, into the held up garments of the memebers of the procession, Pluto sit behind on carriage; diseased figures crawl by side of carriage; Nemesis watches from cloud at top right."--British Museum online catalogue
