This satirical cartoon, *Spotprent op de oppositie tegen het Reglement voor Suriname*, created by Johan Michaël Schmidt Crans in 1865, depicts a figure in a cage-like contraption with wheels, representing the opposition to a new regulation for Suriname. Crans uses visual irony to criticize the opposition, suggesting they are immature and unable to stand on their own two feet. The artwork reflects the political and social climate of the time, using visual satire to comment on the debate surrounding the new regulation.
