"Wellington werft leden voor het nieuwe kabinet" (Wellington recruits members for the new cabinet) is a satirical print by Robert Seymour, depicting a group of politicians eagerly vying for positions in the newly formed cabinet. The print satirizes the political maneuvering and ambition of the time, using humor and exaggeration to highlight the absurdity of the situation. The central figure of Wellington, dressed in a grand uniform, represents the authority and power of the government, while the other politicians are portrayed as scrambling for attention and influence. This print, a testament to Seymour's talent for social commentary, provides a glimpse into the political landscape of 19th century Britain.
