"Spotprent op de pogingen van de conservatieven om de vooruitgang tegen te houden" (1866) by Johan Michaël Schmidt Crans is a satirical illustration depicting Progress as a charioteer driving a four-horse chariot forward. The horses represent the forces of progress, while those who attempt to stop it are shown being trampled under the wheels. The satirical style and political message of the illustration were likely relevant to its original Dutch audience.
