Capital and Labour': Cartoon from Punch, London, 1843, in response to Richard Horne's report of child employment. In coal mines 'labourers are obliged to go on all-fours like dogs'. The labouring poor are locked away in misery, toiling to produce the wealth that enabled 'upper classes' to live in luxury.
