"Ontwerp voor een politieke spotprent: De Gulzige knaagdieren. Aan de arbeiders-boterham," created between 1887 and 1919 by Albert (I) Hahn, is a satirical political cartoon depicting rats dressed in human clothing, consuming a loaf of bread, symbolic of the working class. Hahn uses this satirical imagery to comment on the socio-economic issues of his time, highlighting the exploitation of the working class by the elite. This satirical print, a powerful example of artistic commentary, serves as a reminder of the enduring relevance of social and political satire in art.
