| Description | Driving cattle for rent in Ireland 1849 |
| Details |
A man's livestock is being driven away in lieu of outstanding rent. The owner and his family can only stand by and watch. Two young women carrying wood and water stand sadly. A young child is distraught and the expressions on the faces of the family members illustrate how harrowing an event this is in their poor lives.
