"Banking: A Journey Through Time and Turmoil" Step back in time to the fateful day of Black Thursday, 1929, as depicted in William Gropper's poignant cartoon capturing the Stock Market Crash. The New York Stock Exchange stands as a symbol of shattered dreams and financial chaos. Yet amidst the turmoil, we find solace in the fortified Bank Vault, a sanctuary for wealth protection.

Traveling further into history, we encounter The Savings Bank of Utica in New York. This institution embodies trust and community support during times of economic uncertainty. H. M. Bateman's artwork "Mental Cruelty" reminds us that banking is not just about numbers; it impacts lives deeply. Returning to London's City of London district on Lombard Street with its iconic Walkie Talkie Building towering above us, we witness how finance shapes skylines and influences our urban landscapes. Delving deeper into history reveals the very foundation of modern banking - the birthplace of monetary institutions at England's Bank of England. Its establishment paved the way for global financial systems that continue to shape economies worldwide. Across borders lies Trinity College and Bank of Ireland at Dublin's College Green – an emblematic fusion between education and finance showcasing Ireland’s rich heritage intertwined with banking traditions. Finally, Dollar Savings Bank in Niles, Ohio beckons us across continents to remind us that regardless of location or scale, banks serve as pillars supporting individuals' aspirations while fostering local prosperity.
