Description | Print shows Émile Zola as a bullfighter holding a cape labeled "La Vérité" and a quill pen labeled "Zola", facing a charging bull that is wearing a phrygian cap labeled "France" and has been stabbed in the back of the neck with a banderilla labeled "La Débâcle". After a military investigation and trial acquitted Ferdinand Esterhazy of treason, placing the guilt on Alfred Dreyfus, Zola published an open letter to the president of France demanding that the truth be made known and that the miscarriage of justice, "La Débâcle", that has come to be known as the Dreyfus Affair, be corrected. |
