Description
A caricature depicts a corpulent man labeled "The Trusts", being squeezed by a figure representing "The State," resulting in coins spilling out from his pockets. In the background, an observer watches from a window with an amused or approving expression. The artwork is likely a commentary on government efforts to regulate or break up monopolistic trusts during a historical period of economic reform.
