- Abstract:
- "Satire on the financial crisis in 1720, the print is No.1 in a series of eight prints. A cartouche, enclosing a view of a tomb or monument before which stand Aesop, with a fox and holding a parrot and a pipe, and Bombario with a pedlar's tray holding a flask and allowing his hunchback to be used by a well-dressed man as a writing desk; a monkey plays on a pipe at his feet. On the tomb is an inscription 'Het na-geslecht zal dit/ Voor Fablen houwen/ En tot Esopus eer, een/ Graf naald bouwen' (Posterity will take this as a fable, and will build a tomb in honour of Aesop). The cartouche is supported by a satyr, whose name is given at the top on a ribbon as "Oorblasers Baas" (Chief of the Ear-blowers, or liars), his head peers over the top of the cartouche and he blows bubbles, some bearing images of ears; on his head is a basket with little figures of men and women who will appear in subsequent prints in the series. At the top of the cartouche are pan-pipes, on the left, and a hunting horn, on the right; at the bottom between the satyr's goat legs is the date, 1720."--British Museum online catalogue
