About this work
This hand-colored engraving by Bernard Picart from 1720 depicts a crowded public square filled with allegorical figures, a chariot driven by Folly, and a large wheel inscribed with trade and company names. Scattered papers, pamphlets, and financial documents lie across the ground while a winged figure blows a trumpet above the scene.
