Answer:
In "The Duchess and the Jeweller" by Virginia Wolf, Mr. Bacon is compared to <em>a H</em><em>orse</em><em> who is neighing</em>. Oliver is also compared to a Hog in his search for the perfect piece of jewelry. He is also compared to an Elephant as having a nose like an elephant and sniffing for new opportunities.
Explanation:
Virginia Wolf made use of Animal Imagery in "The Duchess and the Jeweller".
She uses animal to describe Oliver because she is trying to highlight the kind of character Oliver has to the readers. By comparing him to an animal tells the readers that Oliver may not be a nice man and that he may not have the best of personalities.
Wolf compares Oliver to<em> a horse who is neighing</em>, this is not a flattering comparison, therefore showing the readers the kind of personality that Oliver has. Wolf also compares him to a<em> hog in search of a piece of truffle</em>, when he was searching for the perfect jewellery.
I think that Sinclair's purpose for writing this piece was to show the reader the awful working conditions of the immigrants. He tries to awaken the reader to the terrible living conditions of immigrants moving in. Although this was Sinclair's intent the book actually ended up brining awareness to the ways the food was being produced.
