Gravure de William Blake représentant un esclave suspendu par un crochet de boucher, extrait d'un ouvrage de John Gabriel Stedman racontant une expédition de 5 ans (1772 à 1777) au Guyana contre les esclaves noirs révoltés du Suriname, cruellement châtiés. De telles gravures, en informant le public européen des traitements infligés aux révoltés, ont renforcé les courants abolitionnistes.
