EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon print, titled "Little Red Riding Hood in the Wartime," dates back to 1919, a time when the world was still reeling from the aftermath of the First Great War. The classic fairy tale of Little Red Riding Hood receives a poignant and thought-provoking twist in this image, as a young French girl, dressed in the national tricolore costume and wearing her signature white and red hood, encounters a German officer hiding behind a tree along the rural path. The wolf-like uniformed man, with his menacing glare and sinister intentions, presents a stark contrast to the innocent and unsuspecting little girl. The setting of this wartime version of the fairy tale is a poignant reminder of the danger and uncertainty that lingered in the post-WW1 world. The image captures the essence of the fragile peace that followed the war, with the innocence of childhood juxtaposed against the harsh realities of the adult world. The girl's red clogs and blue bonnet add a touch of innocence and charm to the scene, while the officer's uniform and stern expression convey a sense of danger and evil lurking in the shadows. This evocative cartoon print offers a unique glimpse into the historical context of the early 20th century, a time of great change and upheaval. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power of fairy tales to reflect and comment on the world around us, even in the most challenging of times.
