I don't know if they're available in English, but this reminds me of Tardi's excellent Le Cri du Peuple

You mean of Jean Vautrin? And may I ask what is the connection between the article and the novel, which in English translation is called "The Voice of the People".

It's a French comic book based on Vautrin's work. The painting plays a minor role in it.
