This is a black and white caricature by Albert (I) Hahn, titled "De Notenkraker, 2 november 1907 / Kiesrecht-Diabolo". The artwork depicts a man in a plaid suit and vest, holding a stick and controlling a spinning diabolo. The image is likely a satirical commentary on the Dutch political scene, specifically referencing the controversial issue of suffrage in the early 20th century. Hahn’s works often criticized social and political issues, with his humorous style of drawing employed to make a point. The text in the image further clarifies the artwork's subject, referencing the "new devil's game", which could be a metaphor for the complexities of political reform.
