Toqueville's 'The Virginian Luxuries'

The Virginian Luxuries painting demonstrates on the right side of the picture a white man forcing a kiss on a black woman and on the left half of the picture a slaveholder beating a slave. The painting was anonymously made in 1800 and the title suggest that the setting is in Virginia during the time that Jefferson won the presidential election.
