Digital reinterpretation of The Fourth Estate (Italian: Il quarto stato), originally is an oil painting by Giuseppe Pellizza da Volpedo, made between 1898 and 1899. It depicts a moment during a labor strike when workers' representatives calmly and confidently stride out of a crowd to negotiate for the workers' rights. Its name refers to the working class as standing alongside the three traditional estates that divided power between the nobility, clergy, and commoners.
