South Sea Bubble, 1721. Artist: William Hogarth
South Sea Bubble, 1721. People queue to enter the Devils shop, while he cuts up Fortune. Clerics of various denominations gamble in the left foreground. People ride on a wooden hobby horse. Honour is flogged in the stocks by Villainy, and Honesty is broken on the wheel with Self-interest acting as confessor. This, the first major crash of the English stock market, involved fraud, speculation and greed and, when the Bubble burst in 1720, financial ruin for many
