Description | Editorial cartoon shows a fat man, wearing a formal black jacket and high black silk hat, standing on a mound of skulls from which guns and bayonets protrude. Barbed wire fencing can be seen in the background. The fat man peers into the distance through a telescope. The fat man appears to represent a kind of generic capitalist/politician. The cartoon probably reflects Gropper's view of the first World War as being caused by the machinations of politicians and munitions makers in a capitalist world. |
