About this work
An engraved caricature titled L'échelle de Jacob shows a ladder reaching into a cloudy sky, with angels at the top and a figure in papal dress above. Stout, well-dressed men climb and tumble along the rungs while a devil-like figure rises from below and a sign reading Mont-de-Piété hangs on the ladder. This print by J. J. Grandville is dated 1836.
