Description: Illustration of the inefficiency of emergency food aid during the famine in northern Sweden 1867. From left can be seen the county governor, the police and tax authorities and rich farmers - all of them helping each other to lots of the grain intended for starving people. The poor man to the right, who really needs help, gets a mere handful of grain.
