The Strike, a Subject for the Consideration of the Real Working Man, 1859

The Strike, a Subject for the Consideration of the Real Working Man, 1859. Committee Man and General Talker says: What I say, my Boy, is-Hold out! Hold out-and we ll soon bring the Masters to their Senses!. Worker. Ah! Its all very well for You to hold out.... The different effects of industrial action on those leading strikes, and the workers actually striking, is clearly depicted in this cartoon. The florid, well-fed, committee man encourages the emaciated and shabby working-class man to stay firm and keep his resolve. The labourers family, sad, ill and dying in the background show clearly how even a short disruption in income for poorer families could precipitate them into destitution. From Punch, or the London Charivari, November 5, 1859

The Strike, a Subject for the Consideration of the Real Working Man, 1859

EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the stark contrast between those leading strikes and the workers themselves. In this thought-provoking cartoon, we witness a conversation between two individuals that epitomizes the effects of industrial action on different social classes. The committee man, portrayed as well-fed and prosperous, urges his emaciated working-class counterpart to hold out during the strike. His words exude confidence and determination, promising that their collective efforts will bring the masters to their senses. Meanwhile, in the background, we see a laborer's family suffering from sadness and illness – victims of poverty exacerbated by disrupted income. This powerful image serves as a reminder of how even short disruptions in wages can plunge impoverished families into destitution. The artist skillfully portrays not only economic disparity but also highlights societal issues such as class struggle and inequality prevalent during Britain's 19th century. Through its monochromatic style and detailed engravings, this print offers us insight into an important chapter in history where workers fought for better conditions against powerful employers. It prompts us to reflect on how far society has come since then while reminding us that there is still work to be done in ensuring fair treatment for all members of our global workforce.
