Satire on the financial crisis  in 1720; two etchings, the inner print shows an oval portrait of Madame Law, finely dressed in a tricorne hat with feathers, set against the background of the Doge's Palace in Venice at carnival time; the column at the entrance to St Mark's Square is surmounted by the monogram "LL" (for Law of Lauriston). The outer etching forms a richly-decorated border of scrolls, foliage, fruits and flowers. Below the design is a Dutch verse in the words of Madame Law lamenting her husband's loss of his fortune. 1720
