The painting was designed so that each panel can be separated from the others by a few centimeters, but the work also works incredibly well if the panels are next to each other without any separation. Curator's Notes: "Tulip Mania" by Diego Tirigall stands as a grand allegory that transcends the specific events of financial phenomena like GameStop and Reddit.
