"A Liberal Measure" is a satirical cartoon by English artist John Leech, known for his illustrations in Punch magazine. The image depicts a large man stepping onto a weighing scale, presumably to pay a fare for public transportation. The caption, "A Liberal Measure," suggests that the man is taking advantage of the system by manipulating the scale to his benefit. Leech's cartoons often commented on social issues and political satire of the Victorian era, using humor to highlight injustices and absurdities. This particular cartoon likely targeted the perceived unfairness of the transportation system or the greed of individuals.
