The Fair Stall of the Share Traders, 1720

The fairground stall of the share traders. A large cart pulled by two toads and driven by Deception, on which ride Bombario (with a hunchback) in harlequin costume, the devil with a bellows, and a jester declaring shares. Around the cart and at the Quincampoix coffee house, a large crowd of share traders in panic. On the right, a gate with the coats of arms of Haarlem, Amsterdam, and Leiden, where the cart is denied entry. In the caption, a verse in four columns by Philadelphus. Print in the bound first edition (304 B 11) of Het Groote Tafereel der Dwaasheid with satirical prints on the Wind Trade or Share Trading of 1720.
