EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Paris in the early 18th century. Titled "Paris IV arrondissement - La rue Quincampoix en 1720 a l'époque du système de John Law" it offers a glimpse into an important chapter in French history. The image depicts the famous Rue Quincampoix during the time of John Law's economic system, developed between 1716 and 1720. The street is filled with speculators, their excitement palpable as they engage in agiotage, or speculative trading. This scene captures a pivotal moment when financial speculation was at its peak, ultimately leading to bankruptcy caused by Law's policies. The Scottish economist's influence on France and its economy cannot be overstated. The artist behind this remarkable engraving remains unknown but has skillfully captured the essence of this historical period. The level of detail transports us back to that era, allowing us to witness firsthand the manifestation of financial frenzy on these very streets. This artwork is part of "History of France" by Henri Martin, dating from the late 19th century. It serves as a testament to how art can preserve moments from our past and provide valuable insights into significant events that have shaped nations and economies. Stefano Bianchetti has beautifully reproduced this piece for private collections worldwide, ensuring that future generations can appreciate and learn from this fascinating slice of French history.
