About this artwork
Allegory of Tulipomania, a short-lived (1636-1637) craze in the tulip bulb trade. Primarily in Haarlem and the surrounding area. At that time, these bulbs were introduced to the Dutch market from Turkey, and owning them became a craze. The trade quickly spiraled completely out of control, and the bulbs became worth a fortune. It degenerated into speculative trading; the market collapsed completely, causing massive bankruptcies and leaving many buyers…
destitute. This period of tulip mania is regarded as the world's first stock market crash.

Credentials
- Works on commission
John Rabou, since 1980 artist-illustrator from ’s-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands.
I specialize in historical and archaeological illustrations and artist impressions. I strive for the greatest possible historical accuracy and plausibility. Until my “retirement,” I also created illustrations for (historical) youth books and biology, anatomy, and medical illustrations. I worked for educational and children's book publishers, heritage institutions, government archaeological services and companies, theme parks, and museums both at home and abroad. In England, I worked with an agent. I have a fascination with classical and medieval mythology.
Nowadays, I initiate and publish my own book projects, usually in collaboration with various writers, like "Wonderwezens" (2017) and "De vlucht van Daidalos" (2022), with author Imme Dros.
For almost 10 years now, I have been working on the designs for an embroidery project in Vlaardingen; a work in progress, when finished measuring about 35-40 m.
