This 1832-1897 etching by Alexander Ver Huell depicts a man in a top hat walking past a series of smaller sketches of individuals with physical disabilities. The work, located in the Rijksmuseum, is a powerful example of social commentary, as Ver Huell uses the exaggerated size of the man in the top hat to contrast with the small, seemingly insignificant figures around him, drawing attention to societal inequalities and the struggles faced by people with disabilities.
