"An Allegory of Vanity" is a 19th-century oil painting by Italian artist Federico Maldarelli (1826–1893). Maldarelli, known for his genre scenes and allegorical works, was a prominent figure in the Italian art scene of his time. The painting is a quintessential example of Maldarelli's skill in blending classical themes with the aesthetic sensibilities of the late Romantic period.

The artwork depicts a scene rich in symbolic elements commonly associated with the concept of vanity. It typically features a young woman, often at a dressing table, surrounded by various objects that signify the transient nature of beauty and life, such as mirrors, jewelry, and sometimes skulls or timepieces. These elements serve as memento mori, reminding the viewer of the inevitability of aging and death.

"An Allegory of Vanity" is significant for its exploration of a theme that has fascinated artists for centuries. Maldarelli's interpretation is particularly noted for its delicate rendering of the subject and the moral message conveyed through the allegory. The painting is a testament to the artist's technical prowess and his ability to convey complex ideas through visual art.

The painting's current location, provenance, and critical reception over time are aspects that contribute to its historical and cultural significance. As a work that exemplifies Maldarelli's artistic contributions, "An Allegory of Vanity" continues to be studied and appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and its place within the broader context of 19th-century European art.
