Hi. You did not inform the painting that your question refers to, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question exactly like yours that showed the painting "Canvassing for Votes." If that's the case for you, I hope the answer below will help you.

Answer:

"Canvassing for Votes" can be difficult for the modern public to understand, because it presents an electoral process that is different from what is currently carried out. This will prevent the public from associating the image presented in the painting with the image of a voting day today.

Explanation:

"Canvassing for Votes" is a critique of electoral corruption. In the painting we can see a political candidate distracting a crowd while his comrades offer money to a man who was about to vote. Money is being offered to convince the man to vote for the candidate.

It is currently not common to see candidates at polling stations, or party mates, or even crowds near the polling counter. Although we know that electoral corruption exists, it does not happen in the polling place, but it happens before, in a less public way.

The difference in how corruption happens today and how it happened in Hogarth's time may prevent the modern public from understanding the painting "Canvassing for Votes," without the aid of an explanation.
