"Spotprent op het gelijktijdig indienen van een wetsontwerp op de spoorwegen door Heemskerk en Kappeyne" (1875) is a satirical cartoon by Johan Michaël Schmidt Crans, depicting two politicians, Heemskerk and Kappeyne, as train conductors racing towards each other on parallel tracks. The image highlights the competing views on railway legislation in the Netherlands at the time. Crans uses the visual metaphor of a train race to emphasize the urgency and perhaps even the potential danger of the situation. The artwork is a prime example of 19th-century political satire and provides a glimpse into the dynamics of Dutch politics during that period.
