Day 386: Lucas Maasen & Sons

How wonderful is this project by Lucas Maasen? He employed his sons – a nine-year old and seven-year old twins – to paint the furniture built in his factory. They even had a contract stating that the kids will be paid a euro for each furniture they painted.

(Don’t worry, Massen complied with Dutch child labor laws. The kids only worked for three hours a week.)
