This 1875 satirical cartoon by Johan Michaël Schmidt Crans, titled "Spotprent op de drie nieuwe (conservatieve) kiesdistricten die Heemskerk op de kiestabel wilde plaatsen," depicts two figures playing cards. The piece likely critiques the political maneuvering of Heemskerk, a prominent figure in Dutch politics at the time. The artist's use of caricature and symbolism allows for a commentary on the political climate, making this a significant example of 19th-century political satire. The artwork provides a unique glimpse into the social and political landscape of the Netherlands during this period.
