In the foreground a group of bees can be seen working diligently while in the background other bees are indulging in luxurious activities like drinking and dancing. The bees represent society with their actions and behaviors symbolizing the virtues and vices that shape it. The colors used in the painting are bold and bright reflecting the vibrancy of the society depicted. The details of the beehive and garden are meticulously rendered showcasing the artist's attention to detail. The painting is divided into four sections each representing one of Mandeville's summaries. The first section depicts the bees working diligently representing the necessity of labor and commerce in society. The second section shows bees indulging in luxury and vanity representing the vices that Mandeville argues are necessary for a prosperous society. The third section of the painting portrays the tension between traditional morality and Mandeville's defense of vice. The bees in this section are shown grappling with their conscience torn between the pursuit of excess and the virtues of honesty and industry. Finally the fourth section shows a balance being struck between vice and virtue. The bees in this section are depicted working hard and enjoying the fruits of their labor but not at the expense of traditional virtues. The painting thus captures the essence of Mandeville's argument that a balance must be struck between vice and virtue for society to flourish.
