About this work

A satirical ink drawing shows prisoners clutching and climbing a wire fence while guards watch, and others lie sprawled on the ground, some apparently struck by the current. Jean Veber signed the work, which is dated 1901 and titled Les progres de la science. The caption beneath, attributed to an official report to the War Office, ironically describes the electrified enclosure as a healthy and safe means of confinement.
