images of merchants

[Marissa Polsky]

For an image of a capitalist (an American), there is Samuel Marshak's
Children's Poem, Mister Tvister.

Tolstoy's Levin and the business of farming.

I don't know to what extent farming can qualify as  "business", but
there is also a memorable scene of Levin and Oblonsky doing business
with a merchant Riabinin, who comes to Levin's house to buy Dolly's
forest from Stiva.  Part 2, I think.
