Spotprent op de Nederlandsche Centrale Kiesvereeniging te Utrecht, 1869 1869

This 1869 political cartoon by Johan Michaël Schmidt Crans, titled "Spotprent op de Nederlandsche Centrale Kiesvereeniging te Utrecht", satirizes the Dutch Central Electoral Association. The cartoon depicts a ship, with a flag reading "Liberal Program", and various figures representing different political factions, some labeled with slogans like "Monopoly" and "Volkschool." The artist uses humor and caricature to critique the political climate of the time. The work is a valuable resource for understanding Dutch political history and the use of satire in the 19th century.
