An opera singer performs passionately with one hand raised and two listeners seated behind her.

A naked, bound man stands beside a large suited man in a top hat holding a cane.

Three men in dark coats stand closely together, two large men flanking a smaller central figure.

Two seated figures in dark sketch, one holding an upright sword-like blade.

Three museum visitors closely examine two framed portraits hanging on a gallery wall.

Four people grimacing and clutching their heads while leaning together in a tense struggle.

A stern uniformed man with a tall hat walks beside a bowed woman along a path.

Three cloaked men in top hats stand and sit while one writes at a desk.

A dense crowd of seated figures with somber expressions packed closely together.

A crowd of rough figures with a triumphant leader raising arms over fallen people.
