About this work

A wagon with Actionists leaves Amsterdam via the Muiderpoort and drives towards Vianen and Culemborg. The stagecoach is driven by a jester, an ape with a banner reading Bombario rides on the roof, and the horses are led by a devil. Inside and around the wagon are actionists or wind traders. The caption contains a text in three verses. Print in the bound fourth edition (304 B 11) of Het Groote Tafereel der Dwaasheid with satirical prints on the Windhandel or Actiehandel of 1720.
