EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1882 engraving, titled "The Financial Crisis in France, at the Paris Bourse: 1" offers a glimpse into the tumultuous world of finance during that era. The image showcases various scenes unfolding within the bustling Paris Bourse, capturing both the chaos and intrigue surrounding this pivotal moment in history. In the foreground, we witness brokers anxiously awaiting the arrival of the first quotations for English Consols from the London Stock Exchange. Their faces reveal a mix of anticipation and concern as they exchange hushed conversations in what is labeled as a "Confidential Communication" within their inner circle. Meanwhile, buyers eagerly gather around ready to invest their money amidst this financial turmoil. Among them stands a lady speculator, challenging societal norms by actively participating in these high-stakes transactions. Her presence serves as a reminder of changing gender dynamics during this period. Outside this intense atmosphere lies an enigmatic figure known as an "Outside 'Boursicotiaire, '" whose motives and strategies remain shrouded in mystery. Nearby, we encounter a speculator who has journeyed from rural areas to try his luck on this grand stage. Lastly, amidst all these characters immersed in risk-taking ventures, there is one individual who stands out -the newspaper seller. Unlike others depicted here, he runs no risk but instead relies on selling news about these financial developments to sustain himself. Through its intricate illustrative technique and retro styling reminiscent of Victorian arts and culture, this engraved image transports us back to an era
